I think those patches are the same, actually, but I was trying to be
careful.

The "commitdiff" link shows you the actual diffs in the patch, the other
one doesn't.
In practice, Leif's going to want to hit the "patch" link anyway to get a
clean downloadable patch; so likely what we should have pointed him at is
http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb/?p=postgresql.git;a=patch;h=fc58c39d468587467c7c55b349c28167794eadaf
I'm just in the habit of looking at the "commitdiff" versions of the web
pages as being the best readability/information tradeoff for casual
examination of a patch.
