Re: array_length(anyarray)

Hello

I checked it and I got a small issue

bash-4.1$ patch -p1 < cardinality.patch
(Stripping trailing CRs from patch.)
patching file doc/src/sgml/array.sgml
(Stripping trailing CRs from patch.)
patching file doc/src/sgml/func.sgml

(Stripping trailing CRs from patch.)
patching file src/test/regress/expected/arrays.out
(Stripping trailing CRs from patch.)
patching file src/test/regress/sql/arrays.sql

not sure about source of this problem.

Function works correctly and I would this feature
