The core team has received word of a seriously nasty security problem
in recent releases of Postgres. We will be wrapping update releases
to fix this next week, following the new "usual schedule" of tarball
wrap Monday afternoon EDT, public announcement Thursday (4/4).

Committers are reminded that it's uncool to commit any potentially
destabilizing changes to back branches in the last day or two before
a release wrap.

regards, tom lane
