find_my_exec/find_other_exec(). Remove passing of progname to these
functions as they can find that out from argv[0], which they already
have.
Make get_progname return const char *, and update all progname variables
to be const char *.
all the code that looks for other binaries. I move FindExec into
port/exec.c (and renamed it to find_my_binary()). I also added
find_other_binary that looks for another binary in the same directory as
the calling program, and checks the version string.
The only behavior change was that initdb and pg_dump would look in the
hard-coded bindir directory if it can't find the requested binary in the
same directory as the caller. The new code throws an error. The old
behavior seemed too error prone for version mismatches.
conversion of basic ASCII letters. Remove all uses of strcasecmp and
strncasecmp in favor of new functions pg_strcasecmp and pg_strncasecmp;
remove most but not all direct uses of toupper and tolower in favor of
pg_toupper and pg_tolower. These functions use the same notions of
case folding already developed for identifier case conversion. I left
the straight locale-based folding in place for situations where we are
just manipulating user data and not trying to match it to built-in
strings --- for example, the SQL upper() function is still locale
dependent. Perhaps this will prove not to be what's wanted, but at
the moment we can initdb and pass regression tests in Turkish locale.

localisation and exit code. I also added some comments about one sql
command which is not ignored.

* removed a few redundant defines
* get_user_name safe under win32
* rationalized pipe read EOF for win32 (UPDATED PATCH USED)
* changed all backend instances of sleep() to pg_usleep
- except for the SLEEP_ON_ASSERT in assert.c, as it would exceed a
32-bit long [Note to patcher: If a SLEEP_ON_ASSERT of 2000 seconds is
acceptable, please replace with pg_usleep(2000000000L)]
I added a comment to that part of the code:
/*
* It would be nice to use pg_usleep() here, but only does 2000 sec
* or 33 minutes, which seems too short.
*/
sleep(1000000);

o -Allow dump/load of CSV format
This adds new keywords to COPY and \copy:
CSV - enable CSV mode (comma separated variable)
QUOTE - specify quote character
ESCAPE - specify escape character
FORCE - force quoting of specified column
LITERAL - suppress null comparison for columns
Doc changes included. Regression updates coming from Andrew.

stack depth, as per my proposal of 30-Dec. This gives us a fairly
bulletproof defense against crashing due to runaway recursive functions.

WITH/WITHOUT OIDS in dump files. This makes dump files more portable.
I have updated the pg_dump version so old binary dumps will load fine.
Pre-7.5 dumps use WITHOUT OIDS in SQL were needed, so they should be
fine.
listen_addresses parameter, as per recent discussion. The default behavior
is now to listen on localhost, which eliminates the need for the -i
postmaster switch in many scenarios.

in one query, rather than making a separate query for each object that
could have a comment. This costs relatively little space (a few tens of
K typically) and saves substantial time in databases with many objects.
I find it reduces the runtime of 'pg_dump -s regression' by about a
third.
is done at creation time for plpgsql functions. Improve createlang and
droplang to support adding/dropping validators for PLs. Initial steps
towards producing a syntax error position from plpgsql syntax errors
(this part is a work in progress, and will change depending on outcome
of current discussions).
discussions. Patch by Fabien Coelho and Tom Lane. Still needs to be
taught about multi-screen-column kanji characters; Tatsuo has promised
to provide the needed infrastructure for that.
