Here's the proposed patch.  Patches posted to the mailing list by their
authors proposed for inclusion are considered to be under the PostgreSQL
license, but this patch hasn't been posted by the author so let's assume
they're not authorizing them to use it.  (Otherwise, why wouldn't they
just post it here instead of doing the absurdly convoluted dance of a
github PR?)
