Hmm, looks like this is a pre-existing bug.

The first thing I tried was to reproduce it using SQL, so I used a
RULE to turn a DELETE into a SELECT FOR UPDATE. This is pretty dumb,
but it shows the problem:

CREATE TABLE foo (a int);
CREATE RULE foo_del_rule AS ON DELETE TO foo
  DO INSTEAD SELECT * FROM foo FOR UPDATE;
DELETE FROM foo;

ERROR:  no relation entry for relid 1

So I think this should be fixed independently of the updatable s.b. view code.

Dean
