I've managed to come up with a solution that works, and embellished it to give
exactly what I want.

create view availability_details as
select aid, asid, asdate, afdate, adays, count(rsgid) as allocated,
adays-count(rsgid) as afree from (
select aid, asid, asdate, afdate, coalesce(adays,afdate-asdate+1) as adays,
rsgid from availability a
left join roster_staff r on r.rsdate >= a.asdate and r.rsdate <= a.afdate
) as list
group by aid, asid, asdate, afdate, adays
order by asid, asdate;

select * from availability_details ;
aid | asid | asdate | afdate | adays | allocated | afree
-----+------+------------+------------+-------+-----------+-------
