Oh right. (Pokes at it...) It looks like the backend accepts
"FROM STDOUT" as a synonym for "FROM STDIN", so that's why this
is checking for both spellings. But I agree it'd be better
for the error message to only use the standard spelling.
Also I tried
regression=# copy int4_tbl from program stdin;
ERROR: STDIN/STDOUT not allowed with PROGRAM
So we probably don't need to bother with adjusting the check
to allow that.
