I don't understand the question.
I was thinking of this as part of PgTAP.
Oh. There is a piece of C, but it's just an implementation of
pg_typeof() so that pgTAP can use it

Shouldn't that just read:

want: (int, int, text)
Yes, that's my ideal, but

Not at the SQL level. Of course, if you're writing C, you can do
something similar to what record_eq and friends do.

Oh, you're complaining about the SQLSTATE not the error text.
I guess that to the extent that any actual thought went into it
(which may not have been much) the reasoning was that you'd have to
change the syntax of your query in order to fix this.

Not for me:
Howdy,
I'm working on functions to compare result sets for pgTAP. In the
process, I found what appears to be an inconsistency in error handling
when comparing incomparable results. I'm testing in 8.4RC2, but the
issue may go back for all I know. Perhaps it's intentional?
This is what I se
