Hey,
the current snapshot dumps core on the 4th time doing
REVOKE ALL ON pg_user FROM public;
It does too in other situations but this is the simplest to
reproduce. The segmentation fault happens in nocachegetattr()
due to a destroyed tuple descriptor (natts = 0!!! and the
others don't look good either) for the syscache 21 (USENAME).
But the destruction must happen somewhere else.
With the 02/13 snapshot I haven't got any problems on it.
But cannot find the error with diff.
BTW: Doing last checks on view permissions - sending a patch
soon.
Until later, Jan
