Dave didn't quote it accurately. It was actually diff -r1.209 copy.c 435c435 < datasize = -avail; --- > datasize -= avail; which is just plain wrong ... the net effect being that COPY IN BINARY would fail to cope with fields crossing message packet boundaries. 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])
