The following bug has been logged online:

Bug reference:      1114
Logged by:          Oliver Elphick

Email address:      olly@lfix.co.uk

PostgreSQL version: 7.4

Operating system:   Debian Linux

Description:        REVOKE done by non-privileged user claims success

Details:

When REVOKE is used on an object for which the current user does not have
GRANT privilege, the operation fails but "REVOKE" is returned as if it had
succeeded:

  $ psql -U fred template1
  template1=> revoke create on schema public from public;
  REVOKE

(NB: this web interface at http://www.postgresql.org/bugform.html could do
with Pg version options for 7.3.6, 7.4.1 and 7.4.2).
