189- A different owner may be specified by using the <option>OWNER</>
190- clause (but only superusers may create databases on behalf of other users).
191- To create a database owned by oneself, either superuser privilege
192- or CREATEDB privilege is required. A superuser may create a database
193- for another user, even if that user has no special privileges himself.
189+ Superusers can create databases owned by other users using the

191+ users with no special privileges. Non-superusers with CREATEDB
192+ privilege can only create databases owned by themselves.
