It looks like the latest psql has a buffer-flush-timing problem.
Error messages are appearing out-of-sync with script echoing,
for example:
*** expected/boolean.out Sat Jan 8 19:31:26 2000
--- results/boolean.out Thu Jan 13 20:41:24 2000

--- 111,118 ---- -- This is now an invalid expression -- For pre-v6.3 this evaluated to false - thomas 1997-10-23
INSERTINTO BOOLTBL2 (f1) ERROR: Bad boolean external representation 'XXX'
+ VALUES (bool 'XXX'); -- BOOLTBL2 should be full of false's at this point SELECT '' AS f_4, BOOLTBL2.*; f_4 |
f1
This is making it difficult to look for actual backend bugs,
so I respectfully request a fix ASAP.
