I'd vote for taking them out of postgresql.conf.sample, I think. > The following four GUC variables are defined in guc.c, but are not included in > postgresql.conf.sample, and do not show up in the online docs under anything > I can search on.

It should be documented as a read-only option, I think. (Looks ... actually it is set up that way in CVS tip.) > {"session_authorization", PGC_USERSET, GUC_NO_SHOW_ALL | GUC_NO_RESET_ALL}, > &session_authorization_string, > NULL, assign_session_authorization, show_session_authorization This one makes no sense to set in postgresql.conf, certainly.

But perhaps that process could be documented better. regards, tom lane
