In particular, no more compiled-in default for PGDATA or LIBDIR. Commands
that need them need either invocation options or environment variables.
PGPORT default is hardcoded as 5432, but overrideable with options or
environment variables.
following is the patch to libpq's large object interface that
removes the requirement to include fmgr.h into fe-lobj.c.
The large object interface now ask's the backend to tell the
OID's of all the required functions in pg_proc.

When you connect to a database with PQsetdb, as with psql, depending on
how your uninitialized variables are set, you can get a failure with a
"There is no connection to the backend" message.
The fix is to move a call to PQexec() from inside connectDB() to
PQsetdb() after connectDB() returns to PQsetdb(). That way a connection
doesn't have to be already established in order to establish it!

Here are a few minor fixes to Postgres95. Mostly I have added const
to some of the char pointers. There was also a missing header file
and a place where it looks like "==" was used when "=" was meant.
I also changed some variables from Pfin and Pfout tp pfin and pfout
because the latter shadow global variables and that just seems like
an unsafe practice which I like to avoid.

Most of the changes in here look to b epurely cosmetic, and don't
affect anything...
...and some stuff is completely questionable...in that I may have reversed
some of the stuf fwe already had :(
