I wouldn't say that, exactly --- if anyone has any problems with 2.5.31
I'll be the first to say "use 2.5.4". (2.5.31 doesn't even compile on
my primary machine.) But I assume the flex guys will fix their little
problems soon, and that before PG 7.4 reaches end of life the newer flex
behavior will be standard. So I think it behooves us to update our code
to be compatible. The core code all works with either 2.5.4 or 2.5.31
now, and I'd like to see contrib doing the same. (cube and seg are
broken, but I'll work on fixing those if you'll take care of tsearch
and tsearch2.)
