Stop - don't apply.

Dumping of views is already done in the current CVS. Pg_dump
now outputs CREATE TABLE for view relations too, but no data.
At the end of the schema (after data for real tables has been
filled in) it outputs commands to recreate ALL rewrite rules,
silently turning the tables into the views they where at dump
time.
