Sorry my question was wrongly asked.
What I need is a unique OID for my new system table
that is reserved for that table?
A new Id that is not used by anything else, and that
will never be used.
(The reference to pg_log was just to show the
similarity of what I need).

N.B. I can't just
#select oid from pg_class
and take one that is not there, since I don't know if
the oid I choose will be used by something else in the
system??

Thanks for your help,
J-P
