Re: Unescaped new lines in postgres

>From heap.c:
      /*        * sanity checks        */       if (relname && !allow_system_table_mods &&
IsSystemRelationName(relname)&& IsNormalProcessingMode())               elog(ERROR, "invalid relation name \"%s\"; "
                   "the 'pg_' name prefix is reserved for system
 
catalogs",                        relname);

I guess this is a slightly different example than what the issue is below.
Maybe I'm wrong and the above code is still legal.  Even so, seems a bit
dodgy to me...
