Description:        

When running this query in psql with valgrind-enabled server:
select translate('(123)', '()', '');

I get:

In the translate() function in src/backend/utils/adt/oracle_compat.c used
pg_mblen(p) even if p has zero length:
for (i = 0; i < from_index; i++)
{
	p += pg_mblen(p);
	if (p >= (to_ptr + tolen))
		break;
}

These changes fix the issue:
for (i = 0; i < from_index; i++)
{
	if (p >= (to_ptr + tolen))
		break;
	p += pg_mblen(p);
}
