I had to do some work on this machine last week, and while digging into it, I
ran across this email which appears to have fallen through the cracks. Not
sure that anyone is still interested (heck, i've forgotten what this thread
was even about), but the following patch should apply cleanly to 8.2.11.
Note that personally I think this is a bit of a hack; I'd rather see a
solution in the upstream code, but aiui this approach is frowned upon. If I
get time, I might redo this as a new pl language (plperlo or something)
rather than maintaing the patch. In any case, if anyone is interested on
hacking on this, please drop us a line.
