commit    31c36102cab914f6664ee2db20c7732aeb51a02b
Author:   Bruce Momjian <bruce@momjian.us>
Date:     Mon Mar 30 17:15:26 1998 +0000
First released in: 6.3.2

    The buffer overrun while creating sequences turns out to be a read
    access overrun. For the sake of doing things properly here is a
    patch which fixes it.
    
    This patch is for the file backend/commands/sequence.c.
    
    Maurice Gittens
