I didn't think to look for a previous fix, thanks for finding this commit
id!

I did a quick look at the places found with "git grep isspace" yesterday. I
agree with the comment from commit 9ae2661: "I've left alone isspace()
calls in places that aren't really expecting any non-ASCII input
characters, such as float8in()." There are a number of other calls where I
think it would likely be safe, and possibly even a good idea, to replace
isspace() with scanner_isspace(). However, I couldn't find any where I
could cause a bug like the one I hit in hstore parsing.
