Please enter a FULL description of your problem:
------------------------------------------------
dbmirror generates "out of memory" error in some
cases when the DEBUG_OUTPUT is enabled.

Please describe a way to repeat the problem. Please
try to provide a
concise reproducible example, if at all possible:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The cause of the problem is that dbmirror
uses
elog(NOTICE, cpKeyData)
and
elog(NOTICE, cpFieldData)
to print column data where elog
interprets the second argument as sprintf
format string, which fails if
cpKeyData/cpFieldData contains '%'.

If you know how this problem might be fixed, list the
solution below:
---------------------------------------------------------------------

The solution is to change
elog(NOTICE, ...)
to
elog(NOTICE, "%s", ...)

This applies to all cpKeyData and cpFieldData,
and probably cpFieldName(?).
