   Empty string behaviour...

   Today, I noticed different empty string behaviour then I am   
   used to.   
      
   Before, empty string was treated as null, so statement   
      
   vcResult := 'something' || ''   
      
   would result in vcResult = ''.   
      
   Today, result of this statement was vcResult = 'something'.   
      
   Does anybody know, when (which patchset) did this behaviour   
   with treating empty strings as null change?   
      
   --   
   I find myself fascinating.
