Oh oh, you are right, forget my suggestion... :-[
I'm lost in the ocean of functions of pg_catalog. lol

By the way,

select setting AS default_tablespace from pg_show_all_settings() x(name
text, setting text, unit text, category text, short_desc text,
extra_desc text, context text, vartype text, source text, min_val text,
max_val text) where name = 'default_tablespace'

and

select current_setting('default_tablespace' )

can be considered equivalent ?

I'm just researching on a bug that i found in the new pgadmin3 and if
this is equivalent i will suggest to pgadmin team to use it...

TIA
