in a non-safe interpreter, so with full OS access! Language is
restricted to be used by DB superusers.
Added "argisnull n" and "return_null" commands to gain full control
over NULL values from new FMGR capabilities.

more restriction for fretful users. The current PG allow define only
NO-CREATE-DB and NO-CREATE-USER restriction, but for some users I need
NO-CREATE-TABLE and NO-LOCK-TABLE.
This patch add to current code NOCREATETABLE and NOLOCKTABLE feature:
CREATE USER username
[ WITH
[ SYSID uid ]
[ PASSWORD 'password' ] ]
[ CREATEDB | NOCREATEDB ] [ CREATEUSER | NOCREATEUSER ]
-> [ CREATETABLE | NOCREATETABLE ] [ LOCKTABLE | NOLOCKTABLE ]
...etc.
If CREATETABLE or LOCKTABLE is not specific in CREATE USER command,
as default is set CREATETABLE or LOCKTABLE (true).
A user with NOCREATETABLE restriction can't call CREATE TABLE or
SELECT INTO commands, only create temp table is allow for him.

key call sites are changed, but most called functions are still oldstyle.
An exception is that the PL managers are updated (so, for example, NULL
handling now behaves as expected in plperl and plpgsql functions).
NOTE initdb is forced due to added column in pg_proc.
Implement TIME WITH TIME ZONE type (timetz internal type).
Remap length() for character strings to CHAR_LENGTH() for SQL92
and to remove the ambiguity with geometric length() functions.
Keep length() for character strings for backward compatibility.
Shrink stored views by removing internal column name list from visible rte.
Implement min(), max() for time and timetz data types.
Implement conversion of TIME to INTERVAL.
Implement abs(), mod(), fac() for the int8 data type.
Rename some math functions to generic names:
round(), sqrt(), cbrt(), pow(), etc.
Rename NUMERIC power() function to pow().
Fix int2 factorial to calculate result in int4.
Enhance the Oracle compatibility function translate() to work with string
arguments (from Edwin Ramirez).
Modify pg_proc system table to remove OID holes.
* Let unprivileged users change their own passwords.
* The password is now an Sconst in the parser, which better reflects its text datatype and also
forces users to quote them.
* If your password is NULL you won't be written to the password file, meaning you can't connect
until you have a password set up (if you use password authentication).
* When you drop a user that owns a database you get an error. The database is not gone.

i tried it... it seems to work

I sending promised patch with:
* getopt_long() - for pg_dump (portable)
* and "Usage: " changes in scripts in src/bin/
- this changes are cosmetic only, not change any
feature ...etc.
All PostgreSQL routines (scripts) support now long options and
help's output is alike for all scripts and all support -? or --help.

against the sources from one hour ago and contain all the portable and
up
to date stuff.
A few other CVS "householding" things you might want to take care of:
* Remove the src/bin/cleardbdir directory
* Remove the file src/bin/psql/sql_help.h from the repository, as it is
a derived file and is build by the release_prep.

them into the scripts dir. I also added a --list option to show already
installed languages.
This whole moving and renaming totally confused CVS and my checked out
copy got completely fried last night. When you apply the source patch,
please make sure that all the directories src/bin/{create|destroy}* as
well as vacuumdb, cleardbdir are gone and that all the scripts (7) are
in
scripts/.
Meanwhile I am still puzzled about what happened with the docs patch.
