I see one unsubstantiated allegation about PG intermixed with a ton
of content-free navel-gazing. Don't waste my time.
There was some considerable effort awhile back towards eliminating
unsafe printfs in favor of snprintfs and similar constructs; I doubt
that the comments in that message postdate that effort.
I have no doubt that some problems remain (cf recent agonizing over
whether there is a buffer overrun problem in the date parser) ...
but unspecific rumors don't help anyone. As always, the best form of
criticism is a diff -c patch.
