Hi hackers,
the attached patch fixes the problem I explained in pgsql-bugs (forwarded).
It's a trivial problem, so no initial patch design was required.
Hope to see my patch applied.
Thanks for your work.
Regards.

Subject: Different error messages executing CREATE TABLE or ALTER
TABLE to create a column "xmin"
To: pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org
Hi all,
trying to create a table with a column xmin I get the
following error message:
test=> create table lx (xmin int);
ERROR: column name "xmin" conflicts with a system
column name
Instead I get a different (and less understandable) error
message if I try to add a column named xmin to an
existent table:
test=> create table lx (i int);
CREATE TABLE
test=> alter table lx add xmin int;
ERROR: column "xmin" of relation "lx" already exists.
The same problem occurs using "xmax" as column name.
I'm on Ubuntu 11.04.
Tried on both PostgreSQL 8.4.10 and 9.1.2
Regards.
