in constraint clauses.
IN and NOT IN only allow constaints, not subselects.
Jose' Soares' new reference docs pointed out the discrepency.
Updating the docs too...
From: Tom Lane <tgl@sss.pgh.pa.us>
Attached is a patch for this weekend's work on libpq. I've dealt
with several issues:
<for details: see message, in pgsql-patches archive for above data>
Bracket things with #ifdef ENABLE_LINE_TYPE.
The line data type has always been used internally to support other types,
but I/O routines have never been defined for it.
indices for restriction clauses containing a constant.
Note that if an index does not match directly (usually because the types
on both side of the clause don't match), and if a binary-compatible index
is identified, then the operator function will be replaced by a new
one. Should not be a problem, but be sure that if types are listed as
being binary compatible (in parse_coerce.h) then the comparison functions
are also binary-compatible, giving equivalent results.
functions btrim() ltrim() and rtrim().
The error was that the character after the set was included
in the tests (ptr2 pointed to the character after the vardata
part of set if no match found, so comparing *ptr or *end
against *ptr2 MAY match -> strip).

I have attached a patch to allow GROUP BY and/or ORDER BY function or
expressions. Note worthy items:
1. The expression or function need not be in the target list.
Example:
SELECT name FROM foo GROUP BY lower(name);
2. Simplified the grammar to use expressions only.
3. Cleaned up earlier patch in this area to make use of existing
utility functions.
3. Reduced some of the members in the SortGroupBy parse node. The
original data members were redundant with the new expression node.
(MUST do a "make clean" now)
4. Added a new parse node "JoinUsing". The JOIN USING clause was
overloading this SortGroupBy structure. With the afore mentioned
reduction of members, the two clauses lost all their commonality.
5. A bug still exist where, if a function or expression is GROUPed BY,
and an aggregate function does not include a attribute from the
expression or function, the backend crashes. (or something like
that) The bug pre-dates this patch. Example:
SELECT lower(a) AS lowcase, count(b) FROM foo GROUP BY lowcase;
*** BOOM ***
--Also when not in target list
SELECT count(b) FROM foo GROUP BY lower(a);
*** BOOM AGAIN ***
There are three or four cases in transformSortClause() and I had fixed
only one case for UNION. A second case is now fixed, in the same way; I
assigned INT4OID to the column type for the "won't actually happen"
sort. Didn't want to skip the code entirely, since the backend needs to
_try_ a sort to get the NULLs right. I'm not certain under what
circumstances the other cases are invoked and these are not yet
fixed up, though perhaps they don't need to be...
least, Solaris 2.5.1. We use it in backend/utils/adt/int8.c.
Add a check to configure so that we see if it exists or not, and, if not,
compile in snprintf.c from backend/port, which was taken from, and falls under
the same Berkeley license as us, the FreeBSD libc/stdio ...
As Bruce mentioned, this is due to the conflict among changes we made.
Included patches should fix the problem(I changed all MB to
MULTIBYTE). Please let me know if you have further problem.
P.S. I did not include pathces to configure and gram.c to save the
file size(configure.in and gram.y modified).
Everyone using an [NOT] EXISTS subquery will have noticed that
already.
The bug is in "subselect.c" in the function "SS_process_sublinks()".
Here the whole function as it *SHOULD BE*:

Attached are patches to enhance the multi-byte support. (patches are
against 7/18 snapshot)
* determine encoding at initdb/createdb rather than compile time
Now initdb/createdb has an option to specify the encoding. Also, I
modified the syntax of CREATE DATABASE to accept encoding option. See
README.mb for more details.
For this purpose I have added new column "encoding" to pg_database.
Also pg_attribute and pg_class are changed to catch up the
modification to pg_database. Actually I haved added pg_database_mb.h,
pg_attribute_mb.h and pg_class_mb.h. These are used only when MB is
enabled. The reason having separate files is I couldn't find a way to
use ifdef or whatever in those files. I have to admit it looks
ugly. No way.
* support for PGCLIENTENCODING when issuing COPY command
commands/copy.c modified.
* support for SQL92 syntax "SET NAMES"
See gram.y.
* support for LATIN2-5
* add UNICODE regression test case
* new test suite for MB
New directory test/mb added.
* clean up source files
Basic idea is to have MB's own subdirectory for easier maintenance.
These are include/mb and backend/utils/mb.
