What are you trying to do? There are different ways to get permission
information, some more appropriate than others depending on your needs.
To learn more see the "System Catalogs", "Information Schema", and
"Access Privilege Inquiry Functions" documentation:

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.4/static/catalogs.html
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.4/static/information-schema.html
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.4/static/functions-misc.html

The Information Schema is available in 7.4 and later.
