Upstream acknowledged and fixed this bug on all current PgPool versions, applying a patch for a broader set of cases
http://www.pgpool.net/mantisbt/view.php?id=60 It would be great if the latest 3.1 release was proposed as a Wheezy update, since it doesn't add new functionality, just bugfixes. In any event, I backported the patch to 3.1.3 as shipped by Debian (attached), and it works fine. -- Prof. Ernesto Hernández-Novich - MYS-220C - @iamemhn Geek by nature, Linux by choice, Debian of course.
