Hi,

Now I saw it again. In a terminal window after an insert from an application:

WARNING:  deprecated input syntax for type double precision: ""
DETAIL:  This input will be rejected in a future release of PostgreSQL.

So this merely means that in future one can not insert empty values into field 
of type double precision ?
