Thanks Andrew!

And many thanks to you and the rest of the PostgreSQL developers for all
your support/resistance/reviews along the way.  The final changes are
certainly better in many ways (though not all ;-) from my original patches.

It's certainly been an interesting introduction to PostgreSQL development!

with Safe 2.21. I hope to investigate that tomorrow.
