I think in datatype.sgml line 506 or so:
...
<entry>varchar(n)</entry>
<entry>(4+x) bytes</entry>
should be
<entry>varchar(n)</entry>
<entry>(4+n) bytes</entry>
or
<entry>varchar(x)</entry>
<entry>(4+x) bytes</entry>

enough people object.

There is still no effective difference but it will kick in once setuid

current_user.
