Mention SQL9x precision syntax for date/time types.
Use PostgreSQL consistantly throughout docs. Before, usage was split evenly
between Postgres and PostgreSQL.

Attached patch for unconditional enabling of pltcl-unknown support.
...
Enabling this feature adds very light overhead of 1 select from pg_class on
first using of pl/tcl in backend if unknown suppport is really unused.
But pl/tcl with this support has very improved functionality.
Patch includes changes to documentation.

Install dynamically loadable modules into a private subdirectory
...
under libdir, for a cleaner separation in the installation layout
and compatibility with binary packaging standards. Point backend's
default search location there. The contrib modules are also
installed in the said location, giving them the benefit of the
default search path as well. No changes in user interface
nevertheless.
