Hello,
Consider:
template1=# create table baz (test numeric);
CREATE TABLE
template1=# insert into baz values (5);
INSERT 17259 1
template1=# insert into baz values (5);
INSERT 17260 1
template1=# insert into baz values (5);
INSERT 17261 1
template1=# insert into baz values (5);
INSERT 17262 1
template1=# insert into baz values (5);
INSERT 17263 1
template1=# insert into baz values (5);
INSERT 17264 1
template1=# insert into baz values (6);
INSERT 17265 1
template1=# insert into baz values (6);
INSERT 17266 1
template1=# insert into baz values (6);
INSERT 17267 1
template1=# insert into baz values (6);
INSERT 17268 1
template1=# insert into baz values (6);
INSERT 17269 1
template1=# select * from baz;

Here this system does not pick up the semi colon. I have to enter a
second semi colon to get the update to happen.
template1=# update baz set test = test--3;
template1-# ;
UPDATE 11
This is on Fedora Core 2 with Beta 3.
