Hi!
Sorry, I left office 11 Jun before Michael got bad results
with new nbtcompare.c and I forgot to say that 12 Jun is holyday
in Russia. Now I'm here and waiting for test data from Michael...
BTW, my test with char-values > 127 is Ok.

I don't understand it! bttextcmp() frees memory allocated

I got the same! You have to restart postmaster to get rid of
durty blocks of h1 in buffer pool!
I don't know why elog(FATAL) doesn't call something like
abort() (as ASSERT() does) and simply call exit(0)!
