Description: parameter 'client_min_messages' accept values not listed
in enumvals
Details:

Hi there,

I just came across a small inconsistency:

pg=# select enumvals from pg_settings where name='client_min_messages';
enumvals
---------------------------------------------------------------
{debug5,debug4,debug3,debug2,debug1,log,notice,warning,error}

Hmm, according to the documentation 'panic' is a valid value...

pg=# select set_config('client_min_messages', 'PANIC', false);
set_config
------------
panic

pg=# select name, setting, enumvals from pg_settings where
name='client_min_messages';
-[ RECORD 1 ]-----------------------------------------------------------
name | client_min_messages
setting | panic
enumvals | {debug5,debug4,debug3,debug2,debug1,log,notice,warning,error}

Maybe this can be fixed before the final release of 9.0

Regards, thommy
