Thanks Joshua, that is the problem I wanted to illustrate; i.e.
whenever a tab separates the field name from the data type spec, the tab
character gets swallowed and psql cannot parse correctly. So it seems
tabs are not interpreted as simple white space, and it should not be
used in this case, am I right?
