Thanks Tom! Alas I saw that same comment in fmgr.h but it was missing
the last sentence. Would you like a patch updating it there? Is that
the kind of thing you make CF entries for? (And sorry this is veering

Thanks for this too! I wound up just adding a range_cmp_internal to
avoid the whole issue, which is a pattern already used by a bunch of
the other range_* functions.

Yours,
Paul
