I wouldn't know either, but I do agree that it probably is allowed.

I am running an upstream version of postgres that I compiled myself, so I
don't know if the postgres package has the same problem. The debian

I wonder if other debanized or non-debanized source have problems with
special chars, such as the dash in the passwd/group file.
