Thanks for the pointer.
I was kinda hoping to do it without resort to (external) functions,
since I cannot guarantee that Postgres will be the target DBMS and I also
cannot get array_iterator to compile :(
On the subject of contribs, what sort of licence are these distributed
under? I can't find any documentation for them except for the main
COPYRIGHT file in the top-level postgres directory. Does this mean the
contribs are covered by the same terms, so I can distribute the
array_iterator code with my app provided I include the copyright notice?
