See that last part? That's what happens when you drop a
table--"attisdropped" is set to true. The server can't just delete the
pg_attribute entry altogether for various internal reasons, this is what
it does instead.
And of course this makes my INSERT not working...
There's obviously something wrong here, but the fact that the
pg_attribute entry is still there (but marked dropped) is a not a direct
cause of your problem.
