    _______________________________________________________


When connecting to a PostgreSQL database which contains tables  with deleted
columns, an exception is raised due to illegal characters in the placeholders
for the deleted columns.



The Postgres95 (why is it called this?) adaptor should ignore these
placeholder columns.



A simple patch to Postgres95Channel.m is attached. The patch is cautious and
uses the ILIKE operator, rather than the LIKE operator to avoid
capitalisation issues depending on encoding and capitalisation rules. There
may be a small performance hit, but it should be safer.
