Renaming sequence auto generated by SERIAL type don't update pg_attrdef

Hi all,

Reproduced in 8.3.6.

postgres=# CREATE TABLE test (a serial);
NOTICE: CREATE TABLE will create implicit sequence "test_a_seq" for
serial column "test.a"
CREATE TABLE
postgres=# \d test
Tabela "public.test"
Coluna | Tipo | Modificadores
--------+---------+--------------------------------------------------
a | integer | not null default nextval('test_a_seq'::regclass)

postgres=# ALTER SEQUENCE test_a_seq RENAME TO seq_test_another;
ALTER SEQUENCE
postgres=# \d test
Tabela "public.test"
Coluna | Tipo |
Modificadores
--------+---------+--------------------------------------------------------
a | integer | not null default
nextval('seq_test_another'::regclass)

postgres=# \x
postgres=#
postgres=# -- A sample select used by JDBC Driver for PostgreSQL
postgres=#
postgres=# SELECT n.nspname, c.relname, a.attname, a.atttypid,
a.attnotnull, a.atttypmod, a.attlen, a.attnum, def.adsrc,
dsc.description, t.typbasetype, t.typtype
postgres-# FROM pg_catalog.pg_namespace n
postgres-# JOIN pg_catalog.pg_class c ON (c.relnamespace = n.oid)
postgres-# JOIN pg_catalog.pg_attribute a ON (a.attrelid=c.oid)
postgres-# JOIN pg_catalog.pg_type t ON (a.atttypid = t.oid)
postgres-# LEFT JOIN pg_catalog.pg_attrdef def ON
(a.attrelid=def.adrelid AND a.attnum = def.adnum)
postgres-# LEFT JOIN pg_catalog.pg_description dsc ON (c.oid=dsc.objoid
AND a.attnum = dsc.objsubid)
postgres-# LEFT JOIN pg_catalog.pg_class dc ON (dc.oid=dsc.classoid AND
dc.relname='pg_class')
postgres-# LEFT JOIN pg_catalog.pg_namespace dn ON
(dc.relnamespace=dn.oid AND dn.nspname='pg_catalog')
postgres-# WHERE
postgres-# a.attnum > 0 AND
postgres-# NOT a.attisdropped AND
postgres-# n.nspname LIKE 'public' AND
postgres-# c.relname LIKE 'test' AND
postgres-# a.attname LIKE '%'
postgres-# ORDER BY nspname,relname,attnum
postgres-# ;
-[ RECORD 1 ]--------------------------------
nspname | public
relname | test
attname | a
atttypid | 23
attnotnull | t
atttypmod | -1
attlen | 4
attnum | 1
adsrc | nextval('test_a_seq'::regclass)
description |
typbasetype | 0
typtype | b

Shouldn't the JDBC driver use another query instead that, since docs
alerts[1] to this problem?
