I don't care if the test program only fails once in thousands of tries --- I just want a complete self-contained example that produces a failure. I don't have the time to try to reverse-engineer a test case from your rather vague description, whereas I suppose you can make one by stripping down code you've already got. The sub-text here is that I don't really believe that lo_import and lo_export in themselves are broken. There must be some extra factor --- something else you are doing, or something in your environment --- contributing to the bug. Thus, the odds of someone else building a usable test case from scratch aren't that good, and being able to reproduce the failure outside your environment is an essential step. regards, tom lane
