As I can read from other appends then the behaviour where transactions
are aborted if errors occur is "working as designed" in PostgreSQL.

This is different from the behaviour in DB/2 and Oracle (eg. they do
not abort a transaction if a dulicated key is inserted into a table)
and makes it almost impossible for me to have common code that can use
both PostgreSQL, DB/2 and Oracle.

I'm using PostgreSQL 7.2. Is this something that will be changed in a
later version of PostgreSQL?

Best regards
Thomas
