* MapArrayTypeName
- * XXX arrays of "basetype" are always "_basetype".
- * this is an evil hack inherited from rel. 3.1.
- * XXX array dimension is thrown away because we
- * don't support fixed-dimension arrays. again,
- * sickness from 3.1.
*
- * the string passed in must have a '[' character in it
+ * Given a type name, produce the corresponding array type name by prepending
+ * '_' and truncating as needed to fit in NAMEDATALEN-1 bytes. This is only
+ * used in bootstrap mode, so we can get away with assuming that the input is
+ * ASCII and we don't need multibyte-aware truncation.
*
- * the string returned is a pointer to static storage and should NOT
- * be freed by the CALLER.
- * ----------------
+ * The given string normally ends with '[]' or '[digits]'; we discard that.
+ *
+ * The result is a palloc'd string.
