OK, your diagnose is quite right, missing permissions; we should check
that before trying to add the dependency.
In addition, this is code from early days, apparently adding a serial is
now supported in 8.0, I missed that. Still, since pgAdmin supports
adding arbitrary sequences too, we can't drop the pg_dependency stuff
completely.
