FWIW, I also would _not_ have expected compatibility between contrib and core. In fact, I would have expected contrib tsearch to be a place where experimental APIs existed and that the single biggest difference between contrib vs core was that the core APIs removed any cruft that might have been in contrib. If default_text_search_config makes things more confusing or more fragile, I'd rather see it gone than kept around for backward-compatibility-to-pre-core reasons. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
