------------------------------------------------

Dear list members,
  We are developing an application that uses Postgresql as its dbms.
It seems we've found a bug in PostgreSQL handling of cursored queries.
  I assume that it's legal to do 'fetch backward all in xxx' and then
'fetch 1 in xxx' afterwards. If it is not legal in Postgresql, the rest
of this mail is irrelevant. (I have been using Postgresql for quite a
long time now, and I experienced that you cannot 'fall off' of neither 
ends of a query result by moving the cursor.)

Please describe a way to repeat the problem.   Please try to provide a
concise reproducible example, if at all possible:

So the bug appears when I execute the following steps:

1.  
in psql shell: => create database test;
               => create user tester with password 'tester';
2.	       
in the os's shell: $ psql -d test -U tester -f ss3.sql
                   $ psql -d test -U tester
3.		  
in psql shell: => \i test5a.sql
               => fetch 1 in lionhart;
               => fetch -1 in lionhart;
               => fetch 1 in lionhart;
     ??? last fetch should return a row, but it doesn't seem like...

  test5a.sql : The query we would use
