I've been trying to look through this, but it's all rather convoluted. First,
Debian (at least sid) doesn't ship 7.6.86, it ships something it labels
7.6.87, which is described in the changelog as "the latest CVS snapshot"
(taken June 4th).

This makes no sense to me. Sql.pike in upstream CVS (see
http://pike.ida.liu.se/development/cvs/log.xml?file=7.6/lib/modules/Sql.pmod/Sql.pike&module=Pike
) has no such commit ever; however, postgres.pike has one with that date and
comment. I also looked in the 7.7 repository, just in case --
http://pike.ida.liu.se/development/cvs/log.xml?file=7.7/lib/modules/Sql.pmod/Sql.pike&module=Pike
-- but the same there. I can't really find anything related to these issues
in Sql.pike, really. Thus, I assume it was just a paste error somehow, as
1.26 (which we have in our CVS snapshot) seems like a sane diff to me.

These seem to match the changelogs for
/cvs/Pike/7.6/src/modules/Postgres/postgres.c -- we already have 1.42 in our
snapshot.

Thus, I conclude that this is already fixed in Debian's 7.6.87, if only by
sheer accident, and I'm closing this to reduce the RC bug count for etch by
one. :-)
