intended to allow application authors to insulate themselves from
changes to the default value of 'default_with_oids' in future releases
of PostgreSQL.
This patch also fixes a bug in the earlier implementation of the
'default_with_oids' GUC variable: code in gram.y should not examine
the value of GUC variables directly due to synchronization issues.
proposal for eventually deprecating OIDs on user tables that I posted
earlier to pgsql-hackers. pg_dump now always specifies WITH OIDS or
WITHOUT OIDS when dumping a table. The documentation has been updated.

implementation limits, do not issue an ERROR; instead issue a NOTICE and use
the max supported value. Per pgsql-general discussion of 28-Apr, this is
needed to allow easy porting from pre-7.3 releases where the limits were
higher.
Unrelated change in same area: accept GLOBAL TEMP/TEMPORARY as a synonym
for TEMPORARY, as per pgsql-hackers discussion of 15-Apr. We previously
rejected it, but that was based on a misreading of the spec --- SQL92's
GLOBAL temp tables are really closer to what we have than their LOCAL ones.
No big deal; fixed lots of other markup at the same time.
Bigest change: make sure there is no whitespace
in front of <term> contents.
This will probably help the other output types too.
