Yeah, exactly.
As far as the comment change goes:
- * - attribute [1] of the sql tuple is the category; no need to check it -
- * attribute [2] of the sql tuple should match attributes [1] to [natts]
+ * attribute [1] of the sql tuple is the category; no need to check it
+ * attribute [2] of the sql tuple should match attributes [1] to [natts - 1]
* of the return tuple
I suspect that this block looked better when originally committed but
didn't survive contact with pgindent. You should check whether your
