I think we're there already: AFAICT, user-specified quals and projections are done after dropping the buffer shlock. (Yes, I know there's a HeapKeyTest inside heapgettup, but user quals don't get done there.) We do still hold a pin, but that seems OK to me. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command (send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
