postgres=> select * from pg_tables;
ERROR: nodeRead: Bad type 0

I still see a problem. Did a "make clean install; initdb", as well as
a clean checkout of the current source tree from cvsup.

Is anyone else running regression tests besides the Toms? Can someone
report success on a linux box? Don't know where the problems are
coming from...

I'm sure I ran the regression tests around the v6.5.1 release date,
but haven't been doing code development since then (working on docs
instead) so haven't been testing...
