Re: [PATCHES] bugs in version 6.5

I applied the ecpg, man and trace patches, but not the postgres one...is
this something something that one *is* working on? 

>From what I can tell, in the logs, this was added to rev 1.112 of
postgres.c (the TRACE_PRETTY_PLAN stuff)...by Jan:

============================================================
revision 1.112
date: 1999/05/11 09:06:31;  author: wieck;  state: Exp;  lines: +53 -19
Changed debug options:

-d4 now prints compressed trees from nodeToString()
-d5 prints pretty trees via nodeDisplay()

new pg_options: pretty_plan, pretty_parse, pretty_rewritten

Jan
============================================================

That was 3(?) weeks ago, and nobody has reported any problems with it so
far?

Jan?  Comments?
