Folks,

I've noticed that neither SHOW ALL nor SELECT ... FROM pg_settings
shows the value of custom GUCs, even though SHOW will do so for any
given one.  For example:

SHOW plperl.use_strict;plperl.use_strict 
-------------------true
(1 row)

SELECT * FROM pg_settings WHERE "name" = 'plperl.use_strict';name | setting | unit | category | short_desc | extra_desc
|context | vartype | source | min_val | max_val 
 
------+---------+------+----------+------------+------------+---------+---------+--------+---------+---------
(0 rows)

Is this a bug?

Cheers,
David.
