Build Identifier: 2.3.0.v20110604-r9504

i expected below code to create table which has BIGSERIAL column type id.

  @Entity
  public class NewEntity1 implements Serializable {
      private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
      @Id
      @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
      private Long id;
  ...

but it created:
  CREATE TABLE NEWENTITY1 (ID  SERIAL NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (ID))

it caused by PostgreSQLPlatform class which hardcoded "SERIAL" Identity column type. it should specify BIGSERIAL for Long id field. below:

  @Override
      public void printFieldIdentityClause(Writer writer) throws ValidationException {
          try {
              writer.write(" SERIAL");
          } catch (IOException ioException) {
              throw ValidationException.fileError(ioException);
          }
      }

a original question asked at stackoverflow:
  http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9284564/eclipselink-postgresql-doesnt-use-bigserial-to-long-id

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create entity class which have Long Identity id.
2. create persistence.xml which includes "eclipselink.ddl-generation" property with "drop-and-create-tables" or "create-tables" value.
3. run the application.
