Generally: Because the PostgreSQL coders/fixers/packagers are damn good about integrating needed fixes quickly, to obviate the need for spurious 'field patching'
As an example: http://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/search-results?query=postgresql&search_type=all&cves=on Note that the first handful of CVEs listed there are labeled 'pre-' 9.2.4, or 9.1.9. IE, these are remediated in most recent minor revisions of PostgreSQL code.
If you're seeking to make other, 'off-trunk' mods to the code, experts here will chime in...

Subject: [ADMIN] postgresql patching
Hi,
I am relatively new to postgresql. I did not find any detailed documentation on patching .
Please provide me some links where i can get some note on postgresql patching.
Why does postgres documentation does not have patching topic?
Thanks
Suhas
