[HACKERS] Valgrind-detected bug in partitioning code - Mailing list pgsql-hackers

skink has been unhappy since commit d26fa4f went in, but I think
that just exposed a pre-existing bug.  Running valgrind here
duplicates the failure:

IOW, partition_bounds_equal() is testing uninitialized memory during
a TRUNCATE on a partitioned table.
