AFAICS, Peter's recent incomplete updating of error message wording should have broken every last man jack of 'em. And yet there's still some green to be seen. I think we are looking at problems in the ecpg test scaffolding. For instance, dragonfly claims a green build, but http://www.pgbuildfarm.org/cgi-bin/show_stage_log.pl?nm=dragonfly&dt=2007-06-04%20043001&stg=ecpg-check shows this interesting trace:

Which is two separate bugs by my count. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: explain analyze is your friend
