input.c has:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
revision 1.45
date: 2005/06/10 15:40:41; author: momjian; state: Exp; lines: +2 -2
Use saveHistory so we get a nice error message on failure.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

So, the error probably also occured in 8.0.4, but just wasn't reported
at all.

regards,
Andreas
