According to the SQL standard, the context of XMLTABLE's XPath row_expression is the document node of the XML input document, not the root node. This becomes visible when a relative path rather than absolute is used as row expression. Absolute paths is what was used in original tests and docs (and the most common form used in examples throughout the interwebs), which explains why this wasn't noticed before. Other functions such as xpath() and xpath_exists() also have this problem. While not specified by the SQL standard, it would be pretty odd to leave those functions to behave differently than XMLTABLE, so change them too. However, this is a backwards-incompatible change. No backpatch, out of fear of breaking code depending on the original broken behavior.

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/.
