Hmm. I wonder what we tested back then? I traced through it, and the reason it's failing is that strcasecmp() is telling assign_datestyle() that "iso" and "ISO" are not equal, and as far as I can tell none of the relevant code has changed in the 7.4 branch. Maybe the release note is just wrong. I dug around in the archives and found this discussion: http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2004-02/msg00709.php That patch was never committed because it didn't pass regression. AFAICT the only real solution would be to introduce pg_strcasecmp into 7.4, ie backport this patch: http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-committers/2004-05/msg00037.php which seems entirely unreasonable to me. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faq
