Previously, arbitray system columns could be mentioned in table constraints, but they were not correctly checked at runtime, because the values weren't actually set correctly in the tuple. Since it seems easy enough to initialize the table OID properly, do that, and continue allowing that column, but disallow the rest unless and until someone figures out a way to make them work properly. No back-patch, because this doesn't seem important enough to take the risk of destabilizing the back branches. In fact, this will pose a dump-and-reload hazard for those upgrading from previous versions: constraints that were accepted before but were not correctly enforced will now either be enforced correctly or not accepted at all. Either could result in restore failures, but in practice I think very few users will notice the difference, since the use case is pretty marginal anyway and few users will be relying on features that have not historically worked.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: http://www.postgresql.org/download See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the file HISTORY. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions.
