Here's a patch to fix the binary string doc errors.
Joe Conway
to build dependencies for rules, constraint expressions, and default
expressions. Repair some problems in the original design of
recursiveDeletion() exposed by more complex dependency sets. Fix
regression tests that were deleting things in illegal sequences.
UNIQUE and DISTINCT predicates are both listed as implemented -- AFAIK,
neither is.
I also included another trivial patch which adds the default location
of the DSSSL stylesheets on my system (Debian unstable, docbook-dsssl
1.76) to the list of paths that configure looks for.

pg_relcheck is gone; CHECK, UNIQUE, PRIMARY KEY, and FOREIGN KEY
constraints all have real live entries in pg_constraint. pg_depend
exists, and RESTRICT/CASCADE options work on most kinds of DROP;
however, pg_depend is not yet very well populated with dependencies.
(Most of the ones that are present at this point just replace formerly
hardwired associations, such as the implicit drop of a relation's pg_type
entry when the relation is dropped.) Need to add more logic to create
dependency entries, improve pg_dump to dump constraints in place of
indexes and triggers, and add some regression tests.
This is the first cut toward CREATE CONVERSION/DROP CONVERSION implementaion.
The commands can now add/remove tuples to the new pg_conversion system
catalog, but that's all. Still need work to make them actually working.
Documentations, regression tests also need work.
