      Great.
      
      A follow-up patch for current CVS HEAD is attached, and available at
      http://troels.arvin.dk/db/pgsql/conformance/pgsql-sql-conformance-
      followup.patch
      
      The patch
       - includes a core feature ID that had been left
         out by mistake (C011)
       - updates the sql_feature_packages.txt table to
         reflect changes in SQL:2003 which were not
         covered properly in my last patch

      This was fixed in v1.21 of pg_autovacuum.c, That rev is tagged for
      beta3, so you should not be seeing this issue unless you actually have
      an older version for some reason.

      It's not so much that it strips them (that happens automagically), more
      that it doesn't re-add them when it writes the command line in the
      registry. The attached patch fixes that by simply quoting all options
      that may need it.

      A -E <service> option is added in the attached patch.

      On win32, there is currently no way to get the equivalent function of · 917c8bb4
      Bruce Momjian authored
      the "ps" argument list on Unix - meaning that there is no way to
      identify for example the stats processors or the bgwriter.
      
      This patch adds this functionality, in a bit of a crufty way. It creates
      a kernel Event object with the name of what would be in the title. This
      can be viewed using for example Process Explorer.
      
      It's been very handy for me during both debugging and using. I haven't
      figured a better way, but perhaps someone has one that's less crufty? If
      not, here is at least a working patch :-)
