It's not at all negotiable that CREATE USER and CREATE GROUP have to still work in a sane fashion --- to say otherwise is to say that we aren't going to load pg_dumpall scripts from older PG versions, and that is a Non Starter. (Not too many releases ago, we couldn't even say that: once upon a time pg_dumpall tried to emit "COPY TO pg_shadow" commands :-(. But I hope that it's no longer necessary to handle that ...) regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
