more compliant with the error message style guide. In particular,
errdetail should begin with a capital letter and end with a period,
whereas errmsg should not. I also fixed a few related issues in
passing, such as fixing the repeated misspelling of "lexeme" in
contrib/tsearch2 (per Tom's suggestion).
creation of a shell type. This allows a less hacky way of dealing with
the mutual dependency between a datatype and its I/O functions: make a
shell type, then make the functions, then define the datatype fully.
We should fix pg_dump to handle things this way, but this commit just deals
with the backend.

up a bunch of the support utilities.
In src/backend/utils/mb/Unicode remove nearly duplicate copies of the
UCS_to_XXX perl script and replace with one version to handle all generic
files. Update the Makefile so that it knows about all the map files.
This produces a slight difference in some of the map files, using a
uniform naming convention and not mapping the null character.
In src/backend/utils/mb/conversion_procs create a master utf8<->win
codepage function like the ISO 8859 versions instead of having a separate
handler for each conversion.
There is an externally visible change in the name of the win1258 to utf8
conversion. According to the documentation notes, it was named
incorrectly and this changes it to a standard name.
Running the Unicode mapping perl scripts has shown some additional mapping
changes in koi8r and iso8859-7.

Ok, so *that's* where the bit about the query plan being simple enough.
Based on that, ISTM that it should be premissable for us to decide that
a cursor requiring a sort isn't "simple enough" to support SCROLL.
In any case, here's a patch that makes the non-standard behavior easier
for people to find.

comments on cluster global objects like databases, tablespaces, and
roles.
It touches a lot of places, but not much in the way of big changes. The
only design decision I made was to duplicate the query and manipulation
functions rather than to try and have them handle both shared and local
comments. I believe this is simpler for the code and not an issue for
callers because they know what type of object they are dealing with.
This has resulted in a shobj_description function analagous to
obj_description and backend functions [Create/Delete]SharedComments
mirroring the existing [Create/Delete]Comments functions.

(optionally) to a new host and port without exiting psql. This
eliminates, IMHO, a surprise in that you can now connect to PostgreSQL
on a differnt machine from the one where you started your session. This
should help people who use psql as an administrative tool.

partial. None of the existing AMs do anything useful except counting
tuples when there's nothing to delete, and we can get a tuple count
from the heap as long as it's not a partial index. (hash actually can
skip anyway because it maintains a tuple count in the index metapage.)
GIST is not currently able to exploit this optimization because, due to
failure to index NULLs, GIST is always effectively partial. Possibly
we should fix that sometime.

... in fact, it will be applied now in any query whatsoever. I'm still
a bit concerned about the cycles that might be expended in failed proof
attempts, but given that CE is turned off by default, it's the user's
choice whether to expend those cycles or not. (Possibly we should
change the simple bool constraint_exclusion parameter to something
more fine-grained?)
and rely exclusively on the SQL type system to tell the difference between
the types. Prevent creation of invalid CIDR values via casting from INET
or set_masklen() --- both of these operations now silently zero any bits
to the right of the netmask. Remove duplicate CIDR comparison operators,
letting the type rely on the INET operators instead.

neglected to mention any restriction on when a parameter can be set.
Try to be consistent about calling parameters parameters; use the term
option only for command-line switches.
and DELETE. If specified, the alias must be used instead of the full
table name. Also, the alias currently cannot be used in the SET clause
of UPDATE.
Patch from Atsushi Ogawa, various editorialization by Neil Conway.
Along the way, make the rowtypes regression test pass if add_missing_from
is enabled, and add a new (skeletal) regression test for DELETE.
