Consider this table definition:

                                constraint b_c check ( (b = true and c is not null ) or (b is distinct
from true and c is null) )
                                constraint b_c check ( (b = true and c is not null ) or (b = false and c
is null) or (b is null and c is null) )
                                );
Despite the above two constraints, the following rows get into the table:
     insert into t (b , c) values (null, true), (null, false); 


(b = TRUE AND c IS NOT NULL) evaluates to null when b is null

yes, constraint is violated only when result is false, no when it is null.
