I might be wrong, but I think that is saying that bison will no
longer add a semicolon at the end of the C code for an action.
If you do this:

diff --git a/src/pl/plpgsql/src/pl_gram.y b/src/pl/plpgsql/src/pl_gram.y
index 5009e59a78f..238c8ca80f1 100644
--- a/src/pl/plpgsql/src/pl_gram.y
+++ b/src/pl/plpgsql/src/pl_gram.y
@@ -415,8 +415,9 @@ option_value : T_WORD
}
| unreserved_keyword
{
- $$ = pstrdup($1);
+ $$ = pstrdup($1)
}
+ ;

opt_semi :
| ';'

it doesn't compile. I don't have a pre-3.0 bison to compare to
though.
