Release 8.3.21
+
+
+
Release Date
+ 2012-09-24
+
+
+ This release contains a variety of fixes from 8.3.20.
+ For information about new features in the 8.3 major release, see
+ .
+
+
+ The
PostgreSQL community will stop releasing updates+ for the 8.3.X release series in February 2013.
+ Users are encouraged to update to a newer release branch soon.
+
+
+
+
Migration to Version 8.3.21
+
+ A dump/restore is not required for those running 8.3.X.
+
+
+ However, if you are upgrading from a version earlier than 8.3.17,
+ see the release notes for 8.3.17.
+
+
+
+
+
+
Changes
+
+
+
+
+ Improve page-splitting decisions in GiST indexes (Alexander Korotkov,
+ Robert Haas, Tom Lane)
+
+
+ Multi-column GiST indexes might suffer unexpected bloat due to this
+ error.
+
+
+
+
+ Fix cascading privilege revoke to stop if privileges are still held
+ (Tom Lane)
+
+
+ If we revoke a grant option from some role X, but
+ X still holds that option via a grant from someone
+ else, we should not recursively revoke the corresponding privilege
+ from role(s) Y that X had granted it
+ to.
+
+
+
+
+ Fix handling of SIGFPE when PL/Perl is in use (Andres Freund)
+
+
+ Perl resets the process's SIGFPE handler to
+ SIG_IGN, which could result in crashes later on. Restore
+ the normal Postgres signal handler after initializing PL/Perl.
+
+
+
+
+ Prevent PL/Perl from crashing if a recursive PL/Perl function is
+ redefined while being executed (Tom Lane)
+
+
+
+
+ Work around possible misoptimization in PL/Perl (Tom Lane)
+
+
+ Some Linux distributions contain an incorrect version of
+ pthread.h that results in incorrect compiled code in
+ PL/Perl, leading to crashes if a PL/Perl function calls another one
+ that throws an error.
+
+
+
+
+ Update time zone data files to
tzdata release 2012f+ for DST law changes in Fiji
+
+
+
