Hmm. That's not a very complete fix. Not all of the callers of
CC_get_current_schema() check for a NULL, so you'll still get a segfault
in the caller in some cases. Also, the NULL current_schema value should
be cached like a valid value, otherwise the driver will call
current_schema() repeatedly.

Committed. I did those additional fixes, and added a test case to the
regression suite. Thanks for the report!

No idea. We are long overdue for a release...
