Re: [HACKERS] Some 6.5 regression tests are failing

> int2 .. failed
> int4 .. failed

Both int2 and int4 have been consistently failing
for me, but it is due to a wording problem:
 pg_atoi: error reading "100000": Math result not representable    instead of  pg_atoi: error reading "100000":
Numericalresult out of range
 

Also, float8 usually fails for me, due to the expected 
being a 'result is out of range' error, and the result being:
  > ! bad|?column?  > ! ---+--------  > !    |0  > !    |NaN       etc.

> geometry .. failed

This almost always fails due to a rounding differences.
Is there a way to build the rounding into the test
so that it would fail if something is _really_ wrong?

> triggers .. failed

For me, "check_primary_key: even number of arguments should be specified"
is shown as an error, which is not 'expected', then, as a result, 
everything else in the test fails.

This is definately a problem.

I'm not too sure about these.. I had a host of other failures, but
this was due to me running the test in the wrong account....
running it in the right account now.  :)

I have the same configuration, Pentium Pro, RH 5.1 almost stock configuration.
