We don't make changes in user-visible behavior like this in minor releases; so no, we would not make a change like this in 9.2.3 or any other 9.2 version. -Kevin -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
