Description: Table constrains are not properly inherited.
Details:

When a table is inherited from, it's table constraints are 'disabled':

CREATE TABLE super (x INTEGER, PRIMARY KEY (x));
CREATE TABLE sub (y INTEGER) INHERITS (super);
INSERT INTO sub VALUES (1, 1);
INSERT INTO sub VALUES (1, 2);
INSERT INTO super VALUES (1);

This should result in a 'duplicate key violation' for the unique constraint
on super(x), but it doesn't.

In this case

SELECT x FROM super;

results in:

x
---
1
1
1
(3 rows)
