While I agree with the objection that we shouldn't break the strings
freeze for this, I do think it might be a good idea to apply the change
that prints CHECK constraints using pg_get_constraintdef() rather than
simply looking at pg_constraint.consrc. This is arguably a bug fix,
not a pretty printing improvement, because consrc doesn't track column
renamings (and probably other changes).

Doing that would require making this one string change:

! printfPQExpBuffer(&buf, _(" \"%s\" CHECK %s"),
becomes
! printfPQExpBuffer(&buf, _(" \"%s\" %s"),

but ISTM the latter string doesn't really need any translation and so
it wouldn't be much of a problem.

Comments?

regards, tom lane
