regression test "strings" failure.

I'm getting the following failure in the "strings" regression test:-

What is the date/time on your snapshot? I ran a fresh build yesterday
from the development tree as of about 980202 15:20UTC. Didn't see the
problem...

False alarm, I've just found this message on [COMMITTERS].

Update of /usr/local/cvsroot/pgsql/src/backend/parser
In directory hub.org:/tmp/cvs-serv20139/parser

Modified Files:
parse_func.c
Log Message:

set "caller" value in parse_func.h to func_get_detail instead of just ""

---------------------------

Hi All,

I'm getting the following failure in the "strings" regression test:-

====== strings ======
15c15
< ERROR: func_get_detail: function text(bpchar) does not exist
---

ERROR: : function text(bpchar) does not exist

17c17
< ERROR: func_get_detail: function text(varchar) does not exist
---

ERROR: : function text(varchar) does not exist

This message comes from a call to func_error() but the 1st arg to the
call has changed from "func_get_detail" to "".

I can only think this change is deliberate, but why.

All the code is in backend/parser/parse_func.c

Yes, I felt that the message, "function text(bpchar) does not exist",
was pretty clear without giving them a funny function name to confuse
them.

Oops...removed and also removed the 'caller' variable to
func_error...will do a clean compile tonight and make sure there are
'mis-prototypes' as a result of change...
