Mmm? I think I have some terminology confusion somewhere. I thought that a
GUC variable meant that it could be changed through a SET statement. But
some settings, like TCP/IP socket, cannot be SET. What distinguises
settings that can be SET from GUC variables that are restart-only?
I sense more posts to the list in the offing.
