You need to enlarge your peephole by one line: else { elog(ERROR, "unrecognized bytea_output setting: %d", bytea_output); rp = result = NULL; /* keep compiler quiet */ } *rp = '\0'; The "keep compiler quiet" line is unreachable code (and that comment is supposed to remind you of that). regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
