Doing that is completely unsupported, and we cannot be expected to cope
with random manual modifications to the structure of the database.
That's a fair point, although as I understand it, it's reasonable to
move, say, pg_xlog in that manner.
Why
didn't you use a tablespace like you're supposed to?
Because it wasn't supposed to be anything other than a temporary
workaround, and because I had only 5 minutes of downtime in which to
find more diskspace!
Anyway, I guess that's another "bug" report of mine that turns out to be
useless :-)
Best wishes,
