Hi Phil,

There is a place on the techdocs.postgresql.org website that is purely
for listing gotcha's like this sounds to be.  It's so people NOT running
the very latest and greatest versions of PostgreSQL can be aware of
known things to avoid doing, potentical gotcha's, etc.

Can you tell me more about this strange behaviour?  If it's appropriate,
I'll try to get it onto the techdocs website.

Regards and best wishes,

Justin Clift
