I ran this script and didn't see any problem ...

In general though, whenever you drop/recreate a view you are going to
have to drop/recreate views that refer to it, too.

A crashed backend should leave a core file in $PGDATA/base/YOURDB/core

If you don't see a core file in that directory, it's possible that
the postmaster was started with "ulimit -c 0" to forbid core dumping.
(I think most Linuxen run their boot scripts with this setting.)
Restart the postmaster with "ulimit -c unlimited" to allow core dumping.
You might want to add that command to the boot script for Postgres.

Hmm, I see: there's not a defense against references to
no-longer-existing tables/views when the same name has been re-used
for a new table/view.  I've fixed this.  Thanks for the report!
