47065aec11 I'm attaching those diffs for the Reference Guide in a tar file, as
not all of them attached properly in the post I made a few minutes
ago. Please disregard those earlier files. The diffs in the tar file
replace them.

9c9936587c Implement COMMIT_SIBLINGS parameter to allow pre-commit delay to occur
only if at least N other backends currently have open transactions.  This
is not a great deal of intelligence about whether a delay might be
profitable ... but it beats no intelligence at all.  Note that the default
COMMIT_DELAY is still zero --- this new code does nothing unless that
setting is changed.
Also, mark ENABLEFSYNC as a system-wide setting.  It's no longer safe to
allow that to be set per-backend, since we may be relying on some other
backend's fsync to have synced the WAL log.

48d03278a2 Enhance documentation of date/time functions. Add extract, current_date,

d42d31e78e Alter documentation of boolean type, add example. Someone figured that it

tip about "casting" booleans using CASE.
