Well, in my view, that does change the outside API, because either the input values[] array is going to get scribbled on, or it's not. We should either decide we're not OK with it and just do the fill_val() thing now, or we should decide that we are and not worry about doing the fill_val() thing later. IMHO, anyway. -- Robert Haas EDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com
