i encountered this when trying to do a pg_dumpall in preparation for moving
from 8.0 to 8.1.

can anyone help me restore this correct function of this view rule in the
backend for pg_rewrite?
thank you,

Would it be too far off to guess that you're running Gentoo? This looks
like ye olde problem with that hierarchical-queries patch that they push
on people. Either adding or removing the patch breaks your database :-(.
Since your rewrite rule looks standard, I'm guessing that you rebuilt
and added the patch at some point after initially building your database.
Reconfigure 8.0 the way you originally built it and you should be OK ...
unless you have views that you created after changing ...

you are correct and we've gone down that road. i build my db with 8.0.1,
and i've upgraded through to 8.0.5 as time went by and i never noticed an
issue with it until i went to bump to 8.1 today.
i've tried with and without the hier patch and neither seems to work. i
have a few options left to try but i might be reduced to stitching together
COPYs and system tables from an older backup.

I was afraid of that: you've got some views created with the patch
installed and some with it not installed.

It should be possible to manually correct the bogus entries. Basically
what the patch does is add a field to the QUERY structure, whose name I
forget but comparing working and non-working ev_action strings should
expose it. (It's probably near the end of the string.) If you delete
the field (text ":fieldname <> ") from the non-working ev_action strings
you should be able to get to a state where all the views will dump in a
non-hier build.

that's ok, i found a working solution with 8.0.5 +pg-hier (8.0.1 wouldn't
work + or -pg-hier), so i got things dumped, upgraded, and running. thank
you to you and the guys on #postgresql very much for your assistance :)
