Because that doesn't work :-) I already tried (as you can see in the
message that starts this thread) and MESSAGE_ID is not expanded in that
context. What the patch does is enable it for expansion.

While I have your attention, could you please fix the footer? I messed
up the trailing whitespace in the "-- " line and I can't fix it. See
here:

Magnus tried to help but he hit some errors so he backed off; he told me
to ask you instead. (Note that I only changed it in pgsql-hackers, not
DEFAULT).

Thanks,
