The pg_options.sample that is included in 7.0.x cannot actually be used
because of bugs in the routine that reads it. First, it reads only 4095
bytes and second it does not cope with white space within lines. The
attached patch cures the problem.
It seems to be relevant only to 7.0.x because the entire code has been
removed from 7.1.
