Not necessarily, since associativity does not specify evaluation order:
see http://www.dcs.bbk.ac.uk/~roger/cpp/week2.htm for an example of this.
Associativity only comes into play if there are more than two operands
within an expression.

Yeah, I managed to fix the one place in estimated_extent(), however there
are a couple of other places that need a fix. The problem is again that we
are poking values directly into ArrayTypes rather than using the
PostgreSQL supplied macros for accessing arrays :(

I did have something ready to commit first thing this morning, but my
laptop decided to blow up today - as I'm heading out now, I'll see if I
can come up with something later this evening on my home machine.


ATB,

Mark.
