Rajesh,
Thanks for telling me that I am _not_ going crazy. 
Because I could not see any reason why Gabriel's
scripts should not work.
Gabriel, I have two remaining suggestions:
1. Maybe you have stuff in your database that you do
not expect.  Perhaps try running this via a
newly-created, empty database?
2. If that still doesn't work, you probably have a
problem with your installation.  If you post details
of your OS platform, PostgreSQL version etc., some
guru on the list may be able to suggest something.
Sorry, that's the best I can think of.
Jeff
