A while back,2c92edad48allowed type_func_name_keywords to be used in more places, including role identifiers. Unfortunately, that commit missed out on cases where name_list was used for lists-of-roles, eg: for DROP ROLE. This resulted in the unfortunate situation that you could CREATE a role with a type_func_name_keywords-allowed identifier, but not DROP it (directly- ALTER could be used to rename it to something which could be DROP'd). This extends allowing type_func_name_keywords to places where role lists can be used. Back-patch to 9.0, as2c92edad48was.
src/backend/parser/README Parser ====== This directory does more than tokenize and parse SQL queries. It also creates Query structures for the various complex queries that are passed to the optimizer and then executor. parser.c things start here scan.l break query into tokens scansup.c handle escapes in input strings kwlookup.c turn keywords into specific tokens keywords.c table of standard keywords (passed to kwlookup.c) gram.y parse the tokens and produce a "raw" parse tree analyze.c top level of parse analysis for optimizable queries parse_agg.c handle aggregates, like SUM(col1), AVG(col2), ... parse_clause.c handle clauses like WHERE, ORDER BY, GROUP BY, ... parse_coerce.c handle coercing expressions to different data types parse_collate.c assign collation information in completed expressions parse_cte.c handle Common Table Expressions (WITH clauses) parse_expr.c handle expressions like col, col + 3, x = 3 or x = 4 parse_func.c handle functions, table.column and column identifiers parse_node.c create nodes for various structures parse_oper.c handle operators in expressions parse_param.c handle Params (for the cases used in the core backend) parse_relation.c support routines for tables and column handling parse_target.c handle the result list of the query parse_type.c support routines for data type handling parse_utilcmd.c parse analysis for utility commands (done at execution time)
