A similar loose typing is seen, for example:p

-const char *
+const char * const

src/backend/access/rmgrdesc/*.c
 relmap_identify(uint8 info)
 seq_identify(uint8 info)
 smgr_identify(uint8 info)
.... (many)...

src/backend/access/transam/xact.c:
 BlockStateAsString(TBlockState blockState)


I foundnd them by 

find $(TOP) -type f -exec egrep -nH -e '^(static )?const char \*' {} +

then eyeballing on the first ones. I don't know an automated way
to detect such possibly-loose constness of variables or
functions.


regards.
