Description
I recently reported a bug to the PostgreSQL project - see the thread here for extensive discussion of the bug.
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-bugs/2010-08/msg00292.php
The cause ended up being a bug in libc itself, but a workaround was committed to PostgreSQL 9.0. The maintainer did not want to backport the fix to 8.4.4. Since this bug still exists on 8.4.4 and is Mac-specific, I thought it might be nice if MacPorts included the patch so that others do not run into the same problem I did.

8.4 has been eol'd ages ago. As this bug doesn't exist in current versions anymore, upgrade has taken care of the problem.
Note: See
TracTickets for help on using
tickets.
That seems to me a very good idea, in order to get consistent results across platforms.
