Thanks for the tip Greg - that's very clever! I've done this just now, and will check back tomorrow to see if there's any corresponding error message. 

NB:  I hadn't originally realized that the system functions (ie pg_*) were created for each database, so I had renamed only the one in the postgres database, thinking it was global (ie I'll blame this on my Oracle days ;-)). 

Now I renamed the function under one database that had been verified as getting its stats reset on a daily basis. Hopefully tomorrow we'll get more interesting info!
