Inconsistency with LIKE and SIMILAR TO - Mailing list pgsql-general

Hello.

Operators LIKE and SIMILAR TO work differently
This query works ok.:

SELECT *
  FROM www.test
  WHERE expr like any (ARRAY['a','b']);

But this not work:

SELECT *
  FROM www.test
  WHERE expr similar to any (ARRAY['a','b']);

ERROR:  syntax error at or near "any"
LINE 3:   WHERE expr similar to any (ARRAY['a','b']);

Is this shouldn't works ?
