One possible objection to what I wrote above is that it adds a
different kind of special case, but in a sneaky way. Perhaps it would
be more principled to treat it the same as oid after all. If we do
that, it would help to add a comment that we can't treat relnatts like
pronangs, since we need more information than what's in each pg_class
row.
