Thread: redundant message?

I noticed we have this message in utils/adt/misc.c:176 (9.2 branch):
 (errmsg("must be superuser or have the same role to terminate backends running in other server processes"))));

I think the wording "backends running in other server processes" is
redundant.

How about this? (errmsg("must be superuser or have the same role to terminate other server processes"))));

Other ideas are welcome.

Yeah.
