Dear All,
I've just upgraded from 8.4.0 to 8.4.1 because of a segfault in 8.4, and
we've found that this is still happening repeatedly in 8.4.1. We're in a
bit of a bind, as this is a production system, and we get segfaults
every few hours.

Dear Tom,
Thanks for this, and sorry for not replying earlier. We finally obtained
a window to deploy this patch on the real (rather busy!) production
system as of last Saturday evening.
The good news is that the patch has now been in place for 5 days, and,
despite some very high loading, it

It almost certainly is the correct sort order according to the locale

Dear Pavel,
Thanks for your help.
Do you not think it would be really amazingly useful? After all, in C, the
single most useful debugging tool is "fprintf(stderr,...)", and yet
postgresql doesn't have an equivalent that can operate on the most common
data format. [I'm stretching the analogy a b
Sure it does. You can pass the tuple to RAISE NOTICE easily enough.
It won't have all the same bells and whistles psql would supply, but
it prints out well enough for debugging. Or at least it's never
bothered me.
Sorry if I'm being dense, but I can't see how you can pass a tuple; I

Note that doing anything more than RAISE NOTICE or equivalent would
imply a significant protocol change. You can't just shove a table out
to the client, because it'll think that that's the response to the outer
SELECT (or whatever) command that called your function. So while it'd
