Обсуждение: pgsql: Make OFF keyword unreserved. It's not hard to imagine wanting to

Make OFF keyword unreserved. It's not hard to imagine wanting to use 'off'
as a variable or column name, and it's not reserved in recent versions of
the SQL spec either. This became particularly annoying in 9.0, before that
PL/pgSQL replaced variable names in queries with parameter markers, so
it was possible to use OFF and many other backend parser keywords as
variable names. Because of that, backpatch to 9.0.

Two comments:

* You forgot a semicolon here:

+           | ColId_or_Sconst                       { $$ = $1 }
should be
+           | ColId_or_Sconst                       { $$ = $1; }

I think this will work as-is in some versions of bison, but not all.

* The SGML documentation keyword appendix needs an update too, no?

Ah yes, it worked for me.

Hmm, I thought the list is automatically updated, but apparently not.

Thanks, fixed.

I think Peter has some script he runs at release time to update it,
but he wouldn't be very likely to think to re-update 9.0.  So a manual
patch seems required.
