I have already filed a bug in postgres, a few days ago, see #6024

We are doing (in postgres) sth. that the specification didn't expect us, but
allowed us, to do: drop the constraint from an inherited table. Since the
inheritance is a feature only used in ir.actions, we are unlikely to modify
our ORM to prevent that.

Of course, what we can do, is to fix the orm models not to have null names :)
But that may not fix all existing dbs (to be investigated further).
