On other platforms it's better to let the Makefile handle it, but we want
the regression tests to be invokable without make on Windows. A batch
file would be a better solution, but no time for that before 8.3.
Per my discovery that this breaks testing under SELinux, and subsequent
discussion.

checking of argument compatibility right; although the problem is only exposed
with multiple-input aggregates in which some arguments are polymorphic and
some are not. Per bug #3852 from Sokolov Yura.

of poorer planning in 8.3 than 8.2:
1. After pushing a constant across an outer join --- ie, given
"a LEFT JOIN b ON (a.x = b.y) WHERE a.x = 42", we can deduce that b.y is
sort of equal to 42, in the sense that we needn't fetch any b rows where
it isn't 42 --- loop to see if any additional deductions can be made.
Previous releases did that by recursing, but I had mistakenly thought that
this was no longer necessary given the EquivalenceClass machinery.
2. Allow pushing constants across outer join conditions even if the
condition is outerjoin_delayed due to a lower outer join. This is safe
as long as the condition is strict and we re-test it at the upper join.
3. Keep the outer-join clause even if we successfully push a constant
across it. This is *necessary* in the outerjoin_delayed case, but
even in the simple case, it seems better to do this to ensure that the
join search order heuristics will consider the join as reasonable to
make. Mark such a clause as having selectivity 1.0, though, since it's
not going to eliminate very many rows after application of the constant
condition.
4. Tweak have_relevant_eclass_joinclause to report that two relations
are joinable when they have vars that are equated to the same constant.
We won't actually generate any joinclause from such an EquivalenceClass,
but again it seems that in such a case it's a good idea to consider
the join as worth costing out.
5. Fix a bug in select_mergejoin_clauses that was exposed by these
changes: we have to reject candidate mergejoin clauses if either side was
equated to a constant, because we can't construct a canonical pathkey list
for such a clause. This is an implementation restriction that might be
worth fixing someday, but it doesn't seem critical to get it done for 8.3.

constraint status of copied indexes (bug #3774), as well as various other
small bugs such as failure to pstrdup when needed. Allow INCLUDING INDEXES
indexes to be merged with identical declared indexes (perhaps not real useful,
but the code is there and having it not apply to LIKE indexes seems pretty
unorthogonal). Avoid useless work in generateClonedIndexStmt(). Undo some
poorly chosen API changes, and put a couple of routines in modules that seem
to be better places for them.

but no database changes have been made since the last CommandCounterIncrement.
This should result in a significant improvement in the number of "commands"
that can typically be performed within a transaction before hitting the 2^32
CommandId size limit. In particular this buys back (and more) the possible
adverse consequences of my previous patch to fix plan caching behavior.
The implementation requires tracking whether the current CommandCounter
value has been "used" to mark any tuples. CommandCounter values stored into
snapshots are presumed not to be used for this purpose. This requires some
small executor changes, since the executor used to conflate the curcid of
the snapshot it was using with the command ID to mark output tuples with.
Separating these concepts allows some small simplifications in executor APIs.
Something for the TODO list: look into having CommandCounterIncrement not do
AcceptInvalidationMessages. It seems fairly bogus to be doing it there,
but exactly where to do it instead isn't clear, and I'm disinclined to mess
with asynchronous behavior during late beta.

plan before the effects of DDL executed in an immediately prior SPI operation
had been absorbed. Per report from Chris Wood.
This patch has an unpleasant side effect of causing the number of
CommandCounterIncrement()s done by a typical plpgsql function to
approximately double. Amelioration of the consequences of that
will be undertaken in a separate patch.

to a UNION, CASE, or related construct are of the same domain type. The
main part of this routine smashes domains to their base types, which seems
necessary because the logic involves TypeCategory() and IsPreferredType(),
neither of which work usefully on domains. However, we can add a first
pass that just detects whether all the inputs are exactly the same type,
and if so accept that without question (so long as it's not UNKNOWN).
Per recent gripe from Dean Rasheed.
In passing, remove some tests for InvalidOid, which have clearly been dead
code for quite some time now, because getBaseType() would fail on that input.
Also, clarify the manual's not-very-precise description of the existing
algorithm's behavior.

Instead put in a test to drop a NULL default at the last moment before
storing the catalog entry. This changes the behavior in a couple of ways:
* Specifying DEFAULT NULL when creating an inheritance child table will
successfully suppress inheritance of any default expression from the
parent's column, where formerly it failed to do so.
* Specifying DEFAULT NULL for a column of a domain type will correctly
override any default belonging to the domain; likewise for a sub-domain.
The latter change happens because by the time the clause is checked,
it won't be a simple null Const but a CoerceToDomain expression.
Personally I think this should be back-patched, but there doesn't seem to
be consensus for that on pgsql-hackers, so refraining.

containing decimal points aren't considered part of a hyphenated word.
Sync the hyphenated-word lookahead states with the subsequent part-by-part
reparsing states so that we don't get different answers about how much text
is part of the hyphenated word. Per my gripe of a few days ago.

per recommendation from Alvaro. This doesn't force initdb since the
numeric token type in the catalogs doesn't change; but note that
the expected regression test output changed.

in corner cases such as re-fetching a just-deleted row. We may be able to
relax this someday, but let's find out how many people really care before
we invest a lot of work in it. Per report from Heikki and subsequent
discussion.
While in the neighborhood, make the combination of INSENSITIVE and FOR UPDATE
throw an error, since they are semantically incompatible. (Up to now we've
accepted but just ignored the INSENSITIVE option of DECLARE CURSOR.)

then-delete on the current cursor row. The basic fix is that nodeTidscan.c
has to apply heap_get_latest_tid() to the current-scan-TID obtained from the
cursor query; this ensures we get the latest row version to work with.
However, since that only works if the query plan is a TID scan, we also have
to hack the planner to make sure only that type of plan will be selected.
(Formerly, the planner might decide to apply a seqscan if the table is very
small. This change is probably a Good Thing anyway, since it's hard to see
how a seqscan could really win.) That means the execQual.c code to support
CurrentOfExpr as a regular expression type is dead code, so replace it with
just an elog(). Also, add regression tests covering these cases. Note
that the added tests expose the fact that re-fetching an updated row
misbehaves if the cursor used FOR UPDATE. That's an independent bug that
should be fixed later. Per report from Dharmendra Goyal.

if there are zero rows to aggregate over, and the API seems both conceptually
and notationally ugly anyway. We should look for something that improves
on the tsquery-and-text-SELECT version (which is also pretty ugly but at
least it works...), but it seems that will take query infrastructure that
doesn't exist today. (Hm, I wonder if there's anything in or near SQL2003
window functions that would help?) Per discussion.

categories, as per discussion. asciiword (formerly lword) is still
ASCII-letters-only, and numword (formerly word) is still the most general
mixed-alpha-and-digits case. But word (formerly nlword) is now
any-group-of-letters-with-at-least-one-non-ASCII, rather than all-non-ASCII as
before. This is no worse than before for parsing mixed Russian/English text,
which seems to have been the design center for the original coding; and it
should simplify matters for parsing most European languages. In particular
it will not be necessary for any language to accept strings containing digits
as being regular "words". The hyphenated-word categories are adjusted
similarly.

a relation as a reason to invalidate a plan when the relation changes. This
handles scenarios such as dropping/recreating a sequence that is referenced by
nextval('seq') in a cached plan. Rather than teach plancache.c all about
digging through plan trees to find regclass Consts, we charge the planner's
setrefs.c with making a list of the relation OIDs on which each plan depends.
That way the list can be built cheaply during a plan tree traversal that has
to happen anyway. Per bug #3662 and subsequent discussion.

buffers that cannot possibly need to be cleaned, and estimates how many
buffers it should try to clean based on moving averages of recent allocation
requests and density of reusable buffers. The patch also adds a couple
more columns to pg_stat_bgwriter to help measure the effectiveness of the
bgwriter.

in particular a much older patch from Itagaki Takahiro.

* stats_start_collector goes away; we always start the collector process,
unless prevented by a problem with setting up the stats UDP socket.
* stats_reset_on_server_start goes away; it seems useless in view of the
availability of pg_stat_reset().
* stats_block_level and stats_row_level are merged into a single variable
"track_counts", which controls all reports sent to the collector process.
* stats_command_string is renamed to track_activities.
* log_autovacuum is renamed to log_autovacuum_min_duration to better reflect
its meaning.
The log_autovacuum change is not a compatibility issue since it didn't exist
before 8.3 anyway. The other changes need to be release-noted.

columns, and the new version can be stored on the same heap page, we no longer
generate extra index entries for the new version. Instead, index searches
follow the HOT-chain links to ensure they find the correct tuple version.
In addition, this patch introduces the ability to "prune" dead tuples on a
per-page basis, without having to do a complete VACUUM pass to recover space.
VACUUM is still needed to clean up dead index entries, however.

transaction, unless rolled back or overridden by a SET clause for the same
variable attached to a surrounding function call. Per discussion, these
seem the best semantics. Note that this is an INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: in 8.0
through 8.2, SET LOCAL's effects disappeared at subtransaction commit
(leading to behavior that made little sense at the SQL level).
I took advantage of the opportunity to rewrite and simplify the GUC variable
save/restore logic a little bit. The old idea of a "tentative" value is gone;
it was a hangover from before we had a stack. Also, we no longer need a stack
entry for every nesting level, but only for those in which a variable's value
actually changed.

rows will normally never obtain an XID at all. We already did things this way
for subtransactions, but this patch extends the concept to top-level
transactions. In applications where there are lots of short read-only
transactions, this should improve performance noticeably; not so much from
removal of the actual XID-assignments, as from reduction of overhead that's
driven by the rate of XID consumption. We add a concept of a "virtual
transaction ID" so that active transactions can be uniquely identified even
if they don't have a regular XID. This is a much lighter-weight concept:
uniqueness of VXIDs is only guaranteed over the short term, and no on-disk
record is made about them.
