I've applied a patch for this to HEAD & 9.0:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-committers/2010-08/msg00273.php
I'm reluctant to back-patch it into already-released branches, though.
Given the lack of prior reports, the odds of breaking something for
somebody in a minor release seem to outweigh the odds of doing good.
But you could easily drop it into a local copy of 8.4 if you wish.
