I'm the one who originally posted the patch. But the 
"include/mb/pg_wchar.h"  was as complete source in the ZIP attached to 
my mail on 02.11.04  as well as patch in my mail on 30.11.04 with 
correct contents.

And also in the confirmation of Bruce Momjian from 30.11.04 "Your patch 
has been added to the PostgreSQL unapplied patches list ..." there was 
the correct file contents listed.

So what happened? - How can I make sure that my patches will be applied 
correctly, also for further patches?


With best regards,

Roland.
