Actually you can. I would not of thought so, but tried Achilleas's
suggestion and it worked. Example:
--
-- Name: pg_aggregate; Type: TABLE; Schema: pg_catalog; Owner: postgres
--
CREATE TABLE pg_aggregate (
aggfnoid regproc NOT NULL,
aggkind "char" NOT NULL,
aggnumdirectargs smallint NOT NULL,
aggtransfn regproc NOT NULL,
aggfinalfn regproc NOT NULL,
aggmtransfn regproc NOT NULL,
aggminvtransfn regproc NOT NULL,
aggmfinalfn regproc NOT NULL,
aggfinalextra boolean NOT NULL,
aggmfinalextra boolean NOT NULL,
aggsortop oid NOT NULL,
aggtranstype oid NOT NULL,
aggtransspace integer NOT NULL,
aggmtranstype oid NOT NULL,
aggmtransspace integer NOT NULL,
agginitval text,
aggminitval text
);
COPY pg_aggregate (aggfnoid ....
and you do get errors:
pg_dump: WARNING: typtype of data type "any" appears to be invalid
pg_dump: WARNING: typtype of data type "anyarray" appears to be invalid
pg_dump: WARNING: typtype of data type "anyelement" appears to be invalid

Still not sure why you would want to, but you can.

tables and views are already clearly
documented.

pg_catalog itself is generated with the initdb command when a new
postgresql cluster is generated.
