Theworst thing about those, is you can't even force kill those connections from within postgres (pg_cancel_backend
doesn'twork on them, and killing them via the OS bounces postgres ...) so you have to hunt down the offending client.

guessthis arrived in 8.4? Hopefully this won't cause the whole thing to bounce and close all other backends....
