standard targets and behaviour. Replaced Makefile.in's with
Makefile's and declared the respective variables in Makefile.global.
maintainer-clean target now available at top level, although it does
not work in the backend tree yet.
Cleanup pass over Makefile.shlib, renamed some targets and variables.
The shared library symlink tests are now done by make, not the shell.
ecpg: Remove one warning in sloppy flex output.
PL/Perl and Perl interface: the MakeMaker documentation is confusing,
the realclean target *does* "delete derived files", but it also
uninstalls them. Don't use that.
The submake targets in the various bin directories that update libpq
should `make all', not `make libpq.a'. That is a) unportable, and
b) doesn't build the shared library.
1) adds NetBSD shared lib support on both ELF and a.out platforms
2) replaces "-L$(LIBPQDIR) -lpq" with "$(LIBPQ)" defined in
Makefile.global. This makes it much easier to build stuff in
the source tree after you've already installed the libraries.
3) adds TEMPLATEDIR in Makefile.global that indicates where the
database templates are stored. This separates the template files
from real libraries that are installed in $(LIBDIR).
4) changes include order of <readline/readline.h> and <readline.h>.
The latest GNU readline installs its headers under a readline
subdirectory.
In addition to applying the patch below the following files need to be copied:
backend/port/dynloader:
bsd.h -> netbsd.h
bsd.c -> netbsd.c
include/port:
bsd.h -> netbsd.h
makefiles:
Makefile.bsd -> Makefile.netbsd
It would be great to see this incorporated into the source tree before
the 7.0 release is cut.
Thanks!

quote_postgres(...) in ecpglib.c.
The code in CVS reads:
quote_postgres(char *arg, int lineno)
{
char *res = (char *) ecpg_alloc(2 * strlen(arg) + 3, lineno);
int i,
ri = 0;
if (!res)
return (res);
res[ri++] = '\'';
for (i = 0, ri=0; arg[i]; i++, ri++)
{
switch (arg[i])
{
case '\'':
res[ri++] = '\'';
break;
case '\\':
res[ri++] = '\\';
break;
default:
;
}
The problem here is that ri is reset to 0, thus overwriting the initial
quote.

I have changed a bit the makefiles for the win32 port - the *.def files
(created when building shared libraries) are now clean from
Makefile.shlib.
I have also removed "-g" from CFLAGS in the "cygwin32" template - it can
be
enabled when running configure.

Two patches included:
- the first one enables the use of bool variables in fields which might
become NULL.
Up to now the lib told you that NULL is not a bool variable, even if
you provide a indicator.
- the second patch checks whether a value is null and issues an error if
no indicator is provided.
Sidenote: IIRC, the variable should be left alone if the value is NULL.
ECPGlib sets it's value to 0 on NULL. Is this a violation of the
standard?
