Hmm ... digging in the CVS logs, I see just two potentially-relevant
changes between 7.3.2 and 7.3.3.

* src/backend/parser/parse_agg.c (REL7_3_STABLE): Repair incorrect
checking of grouped/ungrouped variables in the presence of unnamed
joins; per pghackers discussion 31-Mar-03.

* src/backend/optimizer/plan/planner.c (REL7_3_STABLE): GROUP BY
got confused if there were multiple equal() GROUP BY items. This
bug has been latent since 7.0 or maybe even further back, but it
was only exposed when parse_clause.c stopped suppressing duplicate
items (see its rev 1.96 of 18-Aug-02).
The second one doesn't seem to apply, but maybe the first does.
