dump problems:

6.4 doesn't seem to get along with FreeBSD 3.0-RELEASE well - if at
all.

In particular, some regression tests failed that I wouldn't expect to
- int8, sanity_check, trigers, misc, alter_table - and trying to
create databases with schema from 6.3.2 causes the backed to exit
unexpectedly.

Yet FreeBSD is listed as one of the supported OS's.

Has anyone else gotten this combination to work? Is there something
outside of the install process that needs to happen to make it work?

Thanx,
<mike

pg_dump seems to be getting a little confused on ACLs, look at this:

REVOKE ALL on "cat" from PUBLIC;
GRANT ALL on "nobody" to "nobody";

For everything that has any differing priveleges, it does the same
grant (which, of course, doesn't work).

What PostgreSQL version is this? If it is not 6.4, I recommend an upgrade.

Yes, sorry, this is 6.4.

Also, lo_import causes the backend to dump core.

To enumerate, this database has made me extremely happy, 'cept for
the following problems I've found:

* this dump problem
* lo_import dumps core
* SunOS 4.1.4 build won't communicate with my IRIX server (I
haven't had time to figure out why)

Seems like there might have been some other problem recently. I
did have a couple build problems on SunOS and IRIX, and DBD::Pg broke.
Nothing too bad. I'm *so* impressed with this new version. :)

I believe this has been fixed, and will be in 6.4.1 when we release it.
