Fwiw this change appears to have crept in when the patch was merged. Ironically while most of us have been complaining about patches not being widely visible and tested outside of CVS in this case we perhaps suffered from the opposite problem. The patch was fairly heavily tested on this end before it was posted and I'm not sure those tests have been repeated since the merge. -- Gregory Stark EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com Ask me about EnterpriseDB's 24x7 Postgres support! ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: explain analyze is your friend
