No, don't think so, because it doesn't set EDOM for the case. Basically what we're doing here is making sure that we get results conforming to current POSIX even on machines that predate that standard. There are more of them floating around than I'd have expected, but it still seems like a good change to make. Maybe there's an argument for not back-patching, though? regards, tom lane
