Thanks. I've had a play with this, and it seems to work fine in 8.4.1 - at least, it doesn't seem to cause any regression that I can see when testing in Vista or XP. I cannot reproduce the problem since I wrote the original fix though, so I cannot confirm that this fixes any new cases; we'll have to take your word for that :-) The code around this has changed a little on -head. I don't have any more spare cycles at the moment - are you able to produce an updated patch for 8.5? Andrew/Magnus; we do still see occasional failures of this nature, so I believe there is still an issue here. Can we look at getting this backpatched for 8.3.whatever and 8.4.2, assuming it looks good to you as well? -- Dave Page EnterpriseDB UK: http://www.enterprisedb.com -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
