Apologies, I quoted the wrong section;  I meant to ask about this
sentence:

	    The following functions return XML Schema documents describing the
	    mappings made by the data mappings produced by the corresponding
	    functions above.
	<synopsis>
	table_to_xmlschema(tbl regclass, nulls boolean, tableforest boolean,
	targetns text)
	query_to_xmlschema(query text, nulls boolean, tableforest boolean,
	targetns text)
	cursor_to_xmlschema(cursor refcursor, nulls boolean, tableforest
	boolean, targetns text)
	</synopsis>
