No, but documentation bloat is.  If this were the tenth report of the
same mistake I'd be the first to agree that it was worth a paragraph.
But we have only *one* report.  Furthermore, there is no reason to think
that the symptoms are consistent across platforms or PG versions, so
I don't even know what the paragraph should say.
