COPY when 'filename' is a directory - Mailing list pgsql-bugs

I'd like to report a bug in 7.1.3 psql (at least on a 64-bit Alpha Linux box).
Maybe someone can confirm this or maybe it's fixed in 7.2

The 7.1 documentation ( http://www.postgresql.org/idocs/index.php?sql-copy.html )
for COPY ala

    COPY table FROM 'filename'

says that if it fails you get feedback "ERROR: reason" and if it succeeds
you get feedback "COPY".  However, I goofed today and my filename was a
directory, and I did not get ERROR...  Here is a simplified version
demonstrating the lack of ERROR:
