This is a bug alright. And a silly one :)

not TRUE. Otherwise we break pl call handler functions. fmgr_oldstyle
will take care of making sure the semantics are the same for C functions.
Clean up some slightly grotty coding in 7.0 pg_class reading, also.
when we need to move to a new page; as long as we can insert the new
tuple on the same page as before, we only need LockBuffer and not the
expensive stuff. Also, twiddle bufmgr interfaces to avoid redundant
lseeks in RelationGetBufferForTuple and BufferAlloc. Successive inserts
now require one lseek per page added, rather than one per tuple with
several additional ones at each page boundary as happened before.
Lock contention when multiple backends are inserting in same table
is also greatly reduced.
- Fix view dumping SQL for V7.0
- Fix bug when getting view oid with long view names
- Treat SEQUENCE SET TOC entries as data entries rather than schema
entries.
- Make allowance for data entries that did not have a data dumper
routine (eg. SEQUENCE SET)
not being consulted anywhere, so remove it and remove the _mdnblocks()
calls that were used to set it. Change smgrextend interface to pass in
the target block number (ie, current file length) --- the caller always
knows this already, having already done smgrnblocks(), so it's silly to
do it over again inside mdextend. Net result: extension of a file now
takes one lseek(SEEK_END) and a write(), not three lseeks and a write.
a PostgreSQL user-defined function. The Metaphone system is a method of
matching similar sounding names (or any words) to the same code.
Metaphone was invented by Lawrence Philips as an improvement to the popular
name-hashing routine, Soundex.
This metaphone code is from Michael Kuhn, and is detailed at
