withyou that it is at least a strange syntax. It is like this at least since 2009 (commit ba748f7a11e). I'm not sure
parse_bool*is the right place to fix it because it could break code. IMHO the problem is that parse_one_reloption() is
usingthe value provided by user; it should test those (abbreviation) conditions and store "true" (for example) as bool
value.
It seems difficult to store a new bool value in parse_one_reloption. This is a string stored with ”autovacuum_enabled
=“.
any other ideas?
