I just noticed this.  In the section of the page, near the end, that

That's not the case.  What get's listed there is the current owner of
the table (at least in 8.2).

Your test case does not show that.  I think you missed this paragraph:

: If a superuser chooses to issue a GRANT or REVOKE command, the command
: is performed as though it were issued by the owner of the affected
: object. In particular, privileges granted via such a command will appear
: to have been granted by the object owner. (For role membership, the
: membership appears to have been granted by the containing role itself.)

Ah, thanks, I did miss that one.
