Subject: Fix incorrect wording about function failure time on unsafe ops - these
X-Git-Url: http://waps.l3s.uni-hannover.de/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1baecf0cb228771ed00641ae42db8358a05b077c;p=users%2Fbernd%2Fpostgres.git

Fix incorrect wording about function failure time on unsafe ops - these
are now caught by the validator. And a small visit from the perl style police:
check the return value from open().
