It seems entirely sensible to me for the postmaster to choke on invalid settings in postgresql.conf.

Might as well make one in plpgsql too --- even if it does nothing today, it might be useful in the future, so the documentation ought to recommend "call 'plxxx_init' when preloading plxxx" as a general thing. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faqs/FAQ.html
