Hi,

Isn't this a bug about trim both.

  select trim(both '<BR/>' from '<BR/>ROI Engineering Inc.');
         btrim
---------------------
  OI Engineering Inc.
(1 row)


"R" is missing? How?


  version
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
  PostgreSQL 8.0.15 on i686-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by GCC gcc (GCC) 3.3.2

Thank you!
