Oh, so not in the Postgres package per se.

What that means is that our regression tests will pass (as it's
just a regular libedit install while they're running) but then filename
completion will not work well for actual users.  And there's not really
anything I can do about that from this end.

(On the other hand, filename completion is already kind of buggy,
which is why that patch exists in the first place.  So maybe it
won't get any worse.  Hard to say.)
