It has never "dropped triggers and stuff", so there was nothing to fix.
All TRUNCATE TABLE has ever done, since the patch was submitted, was to
truncate the underlying relation file and the associated index files,
and reinitialize the indexes. It has been changed to be disallowed in
transactions involving tables not created in the same transaction, but
that's about it. People have argued that if there are *RI* triggers on a
table, that TRUNCATE should be disallowed, as in Oracle. But TRUNCATE
from inception to date has never dropped triggers...
