Yeah, given the presence of the sometimes-fails-to-restart-after-crash
bug in 7.3.3, it would be irresponsible not to make them update to 7.3.6
ASAP anyway.
I don't have very strong hope that 7.3.6 will cure their problem,
although I do see a couple of post-7.3.3 CVS entries that could possibly
be relevant, notably:
2003-07-17 16:52 tgl
* src/backend/utils/adt/selfuncs.c (REL7_3_STABLE): Work around
buggy strxfrm() present in some Solaris releases.
Don't recall now which are "some" Solaris releases.
