The above-described topic is currently a PostgreSQL 9.6 open item. Andres,
since you committed the patch believed to have created it, you own this open
item. If that responsibility lies elsewhere, please let us know whose
responsibility it is to fix this. Since new open items may be discovered at
any time and I want to plan to have them all fixed well in advance of the ship
date, I will appreciate your efforts toward speedy resolution. Please
present, within 72 hours, a plan to fix the defect within seven days of this
message. Thanks.
