Well all, I just spent a bit of time trying to figure out how to recover a
database where the tables appear to be intact with postgres in 'single
user mode', and came up with a quick and dirty that might not be totally
complete, but might help someone else in a similar situation ...

The locale the postmaster uses is whatever was set in its environment,
i.e., LC_ALL, etc.

I've brought this up before, but maybe if I sell it as a bug someone will
agree. :-)
It would be desirable for several reasons that PostgreSQL can be installed
safely with --prefix=/usr/local, or some other such shared location.
(One reason: no PATH, MANPATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH to set up.)

If you've had the feeling lately that you are getting a little less email
from me than expected in the process of due information to the other
developers, let me assure you that I've had the feeling lately that I'm

Based on the lack of reaction on GENERAL and SQL, I am inclined to go ahead
with the
changes below at least as far as returning NULL instead of 'Not a View' or
'unknown (UID=)' (as per Tom's request), if noone objects...

It would be nice. It's pity that pg AMs are not general.
There is no simple way to use btree instead of heap. But
it would help.
But using values from index is good idea too because you
can have table wi
