Greetings,

I've just run smack-dab into the bug described here:

http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-interfaces/2002-05/msg00083.php

and it's somewhat frustrating since the end of that thread is a
reasonably small patch which fixes the problem:

http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-interfaces/2002-05/msg00083.php

Or did for that user anyway but it sure looks like it's solve my
problem as well (which is also a case of using mod_auth_krb5, etc,
though it breaks even for the same user since apache now, correctly,
deletes and recreates the cache with a different filename for each
connection).

I realize it's not entirely fair (given that it was years ago) to ask
this, but, anyone happen to know why the patch wasn't accepted? It
almost patched cleanly against current HEAD even. I went ahead and
made the few changes by hand that didn't apply cleanly and it compiled
just fine; attached patch is against current HEAD and should apply
cleanly.

I'd really love to get this fixed.

Thanks (off to go implement Tom's suggestion for pg_restore :)!

Stephen
