Re: [COMMITTERS] pgsql-server: Make listen_addresses be a comma-separated

Hey Tom,

If you've just made this a GUC_LIST_INPUT variable, then you will need 
to update the nasty bit of hackiness in pg_dumpall to allow it to be 
dumped without error :(

It's line 782 of pg_dumpall.c.  I wonder if you will like that code once 
you look at it :P

The problem is there's no way to know if they're list type gucs when 
dumping, unless we modify the pg_settings view or something.
