Is there anything in comments/docs/list archives about why catalog
access uses a bunch of 'magic' instead of treating catalog tables the

bootstrap somehow (kinda hard to read from pg_class if the info needed
to do so is in pg_class), but perhaps switching over to the regular
access methods after the system is up would be worth-while.
I don't know if it's explicitly documented, but here's one mail that
describes some of the issues:

O.k. I need to fix that... that should be an archives link ;0

Martin how did you find that link with the linuxreview domain ?
