Prior to 8.3, these changes are not critical for compatibility with core
Postgres, since core had no libxml2 calls then. However there is still
a risk if contrib/xml2 is used along with libxml2 functionality in Perl
or other loadable modules. So back-patch to all versions.
Also back-patch addition of regression tests. I'm not sure how many of
the cases are interesting without the interaction with core xml code,
but a silly regression test is still better than none at all.
last pair of parameter name/value strings, even when there are MAXPARAMS
of them. Aboriginal bug in contrib/xml2, noted while studying bug #4912
(though I'm not sure whether there's something else involved in that
report).
This might be thought a security issue, since it's a potential backend
crash; but considering that untrustworthy users shouldn't be allowed
to get their hands on xslt_process() anyway, it's probably not worth
getting excited about.
