6b46ec2707 Mention "syntax" error as not logged by log_statement.
Backpatch.

65f1a7a8dc Document that errors are not output by log_statement (was they were in
8.0), and add as suggestion to use log_min_error_statement for this
purpose.  I also fixed the code so the first EXECUTE has it's prepare,
rather than the last which is what was in the current code.  Also remove
"protocol" prefix for SQL EXECUTE output because it is not accurate.

Backpatch to 8.1.X.

9b83454f7f Update AIX FAQ:
At any rate, here's a revision to CVS HEAD to reflect some changes by
myself and by Seneca Cunningham for the AIX FAQ.  It touches on the
following issues:

1.  memcpy pointer patch for dynahash.c

2.  AIX memory management, which can, for 32 bit cases, bite people
    quite unexpectedly...

fdc28fdcfa Disable full_page_writes, because turning it off risks causing crash-recovery
failures even when the hardware and OS did nothing wrong.  Per recent analysis
of a problem report from Alex Bahdushka.

For the moment I've just diked out the test of the parameter, rather than
removing the GUC infrastructure and documentation, in case we conclude that
there's something salvageable there.  There seems no chance of it being
resurrected in the 8.1 branch though.

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.
