See DefineRelation() in backend/commands/tablecmds.c, and the routines 
it calls.

See the CreateStmt production in backend/parser/gram.y (circa line 1509 
in current sources). CREATE TABLE is a utility statement, so a 
high-level view of the processing is:

- the query string is scanned (scan.l) and parsed (gram.y), producing a 
raw parse tree
- in the analysis phase, transformCreateStmt() does a few simple 
transformations of the raw parse tree and produces a Query representing 
the CREATE TABLE utility statement
- ProcessUtility() in backend/tcop/utility.c invokes DefineRelation()
