Indeed, so why are you complaining to us? > Below is a patch that fixes the problem on the affected system. I'm fairly unenthused about a kluge that hurts performance on standard-conforming systems (by forcing them to traverse the slow code path) in order to cater to a long-obsolete glibc whose behavior conforms to neither the C standard nor its own documentation. If this bug is a problem for you, update glibc. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
