Yeah. Quite honestly, this thread is trying to turn a molehill into a
mountain. I will confidently predict that the really big, nasty change
in 9.1 is the change of default standard_conforming_strings. That's
going to break way more apps than anything else, and possibly in
security-critical ways. Anybody who moves an app onto 9.1 without
testing it is going to suffer big-time.
