i dunno, i agree with bruce here. we are just changing the output of
pg_locks a bit reflecting the change in moving contrib to core.
nobody cares about the literal output of pg_locks for userlocks except
the old contrib users. compatiblity could be supplied in the pgfoundry
module for this as well. i say to leave the lock tables alone and
change to 'advsiory'. it just seems odd the way it is.
