Wow. Looking at the code around NULL_DEV, that actually looks like a merge mistake from the old windows branch or something - it has a comment stating that it should be different on NT, but it isn't... > Peter Eisentraut inadvertently fixed this for 8.4: > > http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-committers/2008-12/msg00095.php > > by removing NULL_DEV and using always DEVNULL, but back-branches need > that too. I'll leave NULL_DEV as it is just in case it's used by 3rd > party modules, but change the two uses of it to use DEVNULL.
