I realize the pg lists are not the place to discuss particular distribution
bugs. However, because the bug occurred only in a particular pg source tree
and not another, I spent a lot of time looking in the wrong place. This
could happen to somebody else as well. Since searching for some keywords in
the pg lists returned 0 results I thought lets change that, to possibly safe
somebody else some time.

Sorry to cause confusion. I'll try to be more prudent in the future.
