Mark,

This is completely untrue and very offensive. Here's a tip I've often 
found useful even though I have also often ignored it (and later 
regretted doing so): before you hit the Send button, take a few deep 
breaths and count to 10.

There is no news in the problem you're complaining of. It's completely 
known and documented. You've stated before that you've been using 
PostgreSQL for years - why is this suddenly so urgent that we have to 
drop everything and backpatch old releases? Please move along, there's 
nothing to see here, these are not the bugs you've been looking for.

cheers

andrew
