Can't you just PG_RETURN_TEXT_P(cstring_to_text("{}")) ?


I'm not too familiar with PG internals and just modified this to work like it did before, but it looks like the extra allocation is indeed unnecessary.

I can post a new patch to make this use cstring_to_text_with_len("{}", 2) (to avoid an unnecessary strlen call) or you can just make the change and push the modified version.

Thanks,
 Oskari
