Right.  If you are trying to find out which N applies to your session,
here is one way:

regression=# select current_schemas(true);  current_schemas
---------------------{pg_catalog,public}
(1 row)

regression=# create temp table z(f1 int);
CREATE TABLE
regression=# select current_schemas(true);       current_schemas
-------------------------------{pg_temp_2,pg_catalog,public}
(1 row)
