Here's a v5 patch implementing the suggestions mentioned upthread:
all meta-commands calling ParseVariableBool() now fail
when the boolean argument can't be parsed successfully.
Also includes a minor change to SetVariableAssignHook() that now
returns the result of the hook it calls after installing it.
It doesn't make any difference in psql behavior since callers
of SetVariableAssignHook() ignore its return value, but it's
more consistent with SetVariable().
Best regards,
