If this were a Postgres problem I'd agree with you. But it isn't, really
- it's a Perl problem, which is properly documented in the Perl docs, to
which this note refers.
I don't think we'll get flooded with problems - Greg is the first person
who has complained about it in the 9 months or so since version 8.0 was
released.
