That can happen, since the default "usesysid" assignment is "max existing usesysid + 1". If you delete the last user then their sysid becomes a candidate for reassignment. This is not real good, but fixing it isn't that high on the priority list (and is difficult to do unless we take away the option of hand-assigned sysids ... otherwise we could just have a sequence generator for sysids). regards, tom lane
