At least shouldn't we fixthe "create table ... with (oids = false, oids = false ....)" case,just to be consistent with other options?
It would be weird to error out while parsing a no-op option, no?

If you look at transformReloptions(), the no-op code is just a hack. Such a
patch should add 'oids' as a reloption to test for multiple occurrences.
Although, CREATE TABLE says you can use 'oids=false', Storage Parameters
section does not mention it as a parameter. The code is fine as is.
