An empty file name or subdirectory name leads join_path_components() to just produce the parent directory name, which leads to weird failures or recursive inclusions. Let's throw a specific error for that. It takes only slightly more code to detect all-blank names, so do so. Also, detect direct recursion, ie a file calling itself. As coded this will also detect recursion via "include_dir '.'", which is perhaps more likely than explicitly including the file itself. Detecting indirect recursion would require API changes for guc-file.l functions, which seems not worth it since extensions might call them. The nesting depth limit will catch such cases eventually, just not with such an on-point error message. In passing, adjust the example usages in postgresql.conf.sample to perhaps eliminate the problem at the source: there's no reason for the examples to suggest that an empty value is valid. Per a trouble report from Brent Bates. Back-patch to 9.5; the issue is old, but the code in 9.4 is enough different that the patch doesn't apply easily, and it doesn't seem worth the trouble to fix there.

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: https://www.postgresql.org/download See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at https://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
