Thanks! I will take a look. >> I tend to feel that we should probably target this for 8.6 rather than >> 8.5.

Is it more comfortable? I'm not sure. One of the problems with separating out contrib module changes is that it tends to obscure the point of the changes to the core code. On the other hand if some of the core code changes can be split out into an infrastructure patch that is of some independent usefulness, that can certainly be worthwhile. It's not obvious to me without looking at this more than I have whether there is a possble split that makes sense here; I will read your updated patch. ...Robert -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
