Really? IMO the reason Thom had a problem was he thought he was
invoking the two-argument form of string_agg, but he was really
invoking the one-argument form.
If we were a bit earlier in the 9.0 cycle I would suggest that this
confusion is a sufficient reason to drop the one-argument form of
string_agg. It's too late now though.
