I see no bug here.  For the CHAR datatype, trailing spaces are defined
to be insignificant.  For VARCHAR and TEXT, trailing spaces are
significant.  If you want to compare a CHAR value to a VARCHAR or TEXT
value, your best bet is a locution like
        rtrim(charval) = varcharval

                        regards, tom lane
