Hi

Here:

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/12/view-pg-roles.html

we state:

"This view explicitly exposes the OID column of the underlying table,
since that is needed to do joins to other catalogs."

I think it's superfluous to mention this now OIDs are exposed by default;
attached patch (for REL_12_STABLE and HEAD) simply removes this sentence.

Regards

Ian Barwick
