Thanks for noticing and patching this issue. I have pushed the 0001
patch just now.
I decided against pushing the other patch. Although I would have
preferred to add a test, its cost seems not trivial: there are three
full-database scans in it (one for each command), and that seemed a bit
excessive. (There's also one extra initdb, but I'm not sure that part
is too bad since we've optimized that particular part.)
I also considered backpatching, since the code has been like this
essentially forever (i.e. at least since pg14). However, I don't
remember any complaints about this and I would hate to destabilize
things for people without an excellent reason. Maybe we can reconsider
after this month's minors, if somebody shows up with vehement opinions
about it.
Thanks again,
