I hope I didnt duplicate Gregs work, but I didnt hear back from him, so...
Everything <8.1 is hopeless because cp is used there... I didnt see it worth
to replace that. The patch applies cleanly for 8.1 to 8.4 and survives the
regression tests
Given pg's heavy commit model I didnt see a point to split the patch for 9.0
as well...
