You haven't presented a test case demonstrating that that happens in unmodified community source code. If it does happen, I'd be happy to look into it, because I agree it'd be a bug. But I have other things to spend my time on than reverse-engineering test cases out of code fragments dependent on incompletely-described custom modifications of Postgres. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
