 I recently reported a bug to the PostgreSQL project - see the thread here
 for extensive discussion of the bug.

 http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-bugs/2010-08/msg00292.php

 The cause ended up being a bug in libc itself, but a workaround was
 committed to PostgreSQL 9.0.  The maintainer did not want to backport the
 fix to 8.4.4.  Since this bug still exists on 8.4.4 and is Mac-specific, I
 thought it might be nice if MacPorts included the patch so that others do
 not run into the same problem I did.
