I've noticed this affect. Has anyone run traces of the connection, to
see if Access tries to determine the primary key from the backend? Does
this requirement go away if you (manually) set the 'relhaspkey' bool in
pg_class for the table? I'd do all this testing myself, but my NT test
box got taken away (yeay! boo! I'm so conflicted...)
