>$PGLOG</TT
> (Noah Misch)
</P
><P
> Previously, the postmaster log file was opened while still running as
root. The database owner could therefore mount an attack against
another system user by making <TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>$PGLOG</TT
> be a symbolic
link to some other file, which would then become corrupted by appending
log messages.
</P
><P
> By default, these scripts are not installed anywhere. Users who have
made use of them will need to manually recopy them, or apply the same
changes to their modified versions. If the
existing <TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>$PGLOG</TT
> file is root-owned, it will need to
be removed or renamed out of the way before restarting the server with
the corrected script.

This patch does not do anything to protect existing views/rules,
only ones created in the future.

for use in hash joins or hash aggregation, but actually it must check
whether the range's subtype has hash support. This does not affect any
of the built-in range types, since they're all hashable anyway.

previous release branches made the same mistake when
