I have loaded the patch queue with all patches that were in my main mailbox:
http://momjian.postgresql.org/cgi-bin/pgpatches
I posted an alternative to this one
http://candle.pha.pa.us/mhonarc/patches/msg00004.html
for comment last night (however I can't find it in the archives -- I'll paste it below). I was going to commit it tomorrow if I don't hear any objections.

Here's a proposed fix. Any objections?
I'm thinking this applies to 7.4 and 7.3 stable branches as well as cvs head -- correct?
