[postgis-devel] postgis_restore; and geometry_columns is now a view

Ok,
so I notice that the new postgis.sql (on trunk) will create a
geometry_columns view.
But postgis_restore will try to
DROP TABLE geometry_columns;
Won't work because it's a view now. Also, the script is setup to replace the
geometry_columns from postgis.sql with the geometry_columns from the
dumpfile. Meaning the "dumpfile.ascii" tries to create a geometry_columns
table (won't work because a view with the same name already exists.)
I've uncommented lines 545-546, hoping to git rid of geometry_columns from
the "dumpfile.ascii" file.
Is this a real problem or am I just making things difficult where they
shouldn't be? Does postgis_restore need to get smarter before the release?
