Perusing the commit logs, I note that 9.5.3 included a fix for a pg_upgrade issue that could possibly lead to this symptom, see https://git.postgresql.org/gitweb/?p=postgresql.git&a=commitdiff&h=196870f2f If you are on 9.5.recent, it'd be worth looking closer, because this is certainly pretty odd. One wouldn't expect a CREATE FUNCTION to result in assignment of a type OID, at least not in pg_dump/pg_upgrade scripts --- they should always put out a shell CREATE TYPE first. By any chance, if you attempt a "pg_dump -s" from the problematic database, does it emit any warnings (about dependency loops, perhaps)? regards, tom lane
