I see one unsubstantiated allegation about PG intermixed with a ton of content-free navel-gazing. Don't waste my time. There was some considerable effort awhile back towards eliminating unsafe printfs in favor of snprintfs and similar constructs; I doubt that the comments in that message postdate that effort. I have no doubt that some problems remain (cf recent agonizing over whether there is a buffer overrun problem in the date parser) ... but unspecific rumors don't help anyone. As always, the best form of criticism is a diff -c patch. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
