Stephen Frost 03010366b6 Correct off-by-one when reading from pipe
In pg_basebackup.c:reached_end_position(), we're reading from an
internal pipe with our own background process but we're possibly
reading more bytes than will actually fit into our buffer due to
an off-by-one error.  As we're reading from an internal pipe
there's no real risk here, but it's good form to not depend on
such convenient arrangements.

Bug spotted by the Coverity scanner.

Back-patch to 9.2 where this showed up.

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:

	http://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.  Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the
file HISTORY.  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
http://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
