where possible, and fix some sites that apparently thought that fgets()
will overwrite the buffer by one byte.
Also add some strlcpy() to eliminate some weird memory handling.
Standard English uses "may", "can", and "might" in different ways:
may - permission, "You may borrow my rake."
can - ability, "I can lift that log."
might - possibility, "It might rain today."
Unfortunately, in conversational English, their use is often mixed, as
in, "You may use this variable to do X", when in fact, "can" is a better
choice. Similarly, "It may crash" is better stated, "It might crash".
In this case extractQuery should returns -1 as nentries. This changes
prototype of extractQuery method to use int32* instead of uint32* for
nentries argument.
Based on that gincostestimate may see two corner cases: nothing will be found
or seqscan should be used.

the 8.1 SQL function definition for it. Per report from Rajesh Kumar Mallah,
such a DBA error doesn't seem at all improbable, and the cost of checking for
it is not very high compared to the cost of running this function. (It would
have been better to change the C name of the function so it wouldn't be called
by the old SQL definition, but it's too late for that now in the 8.2 branch.)
pgbench calls random() later, so it should have called srandom().
On most platforms except Windows srandom() is actually identical
to srand(), so the bug only bites Windows users.

cases. Operator classes now exist within "operator families". While most
families are equivalent to a single class, related classes can be grouped
into one family to represent the fact that they are semantically compatible.
Cross-type operators are now naturally adjunct parts of a family, without
having to wedge them into a particular opclass as we had done originally.
This commit restructures the catalogs and cleans up enough of the fallout so
that everything still works at least as well as before, but most of the work
needed to actually improve the planner's behavior will come later. Also,
there are not yet CREATE/DROP/ALTER OPERATOR FAMILY commands; the only way
to create a new family right now is to allow CREATE OPERATOR CLASS to make
one by default. I owe some more documentation work, too. But that can all
be done in smaller pieces once this infrastructure is in place.

This is a pretty ugly, brute-force solution, but it seems that getting
rid of all these redundant-looking operators would require some tweaks
in the core operator-resolution code to behave nicely, and I'm not
willing to risk that just before RC1.

race conditions in which someone else commits a change to the relation's
catalog entries while we are in process of doing relcache load. Problems
of that ilk have been reported sporadically for years, but it was not
really practical to fix until recently --- for instance, the recent
addition of WAL-log support for in-place updates helped.
Along the way, remove pg_am.amconcurrent: all AMs are now expected to support

Update the calling convention for all external facing functions. By
external facing, I mean all functions that are directly referenced in
cube.sql. Prior to my update, all functions used the older V0 calling
convention. They now use V1.
New Functions:
cube(float[]), which makes a zero volume cube from a float array
cube(float[], float[]), which allows the user to create a cube from
two float arrays; one for the upper right and one for the lower left
coordinate.
cube_subset(cube, int4[]), to allow you to reorder or choose a subset of
dimensions from a cube, using index values specified in the array.

Few cleanups and couple of new things:
- add SHA2 algorithm to older OpenSSL
- add BIGNUM math to have public-key cryptography work on non-OpenSSL
build.
- gen_random_bytes() function
The status of SHA2 algoritms and public-key encryption can now be
changed to 'always available.'
That makes pgcrypto functionally complete and unless there will be new
editions of AES, SHA2 or OpenPGP standards, there is no major changes
planned.
- Replace sorted array of entries in maintenance_work_mem to binary tree,
this should improve create performance.
- More precisely calculate allocated memory, eliminate leaks
with user-defined extractValue()
- Improve wordings in tsearch2
This is an extension of pgstattuple to query information from indexes.
It supports btree, hash and gist. Gin is not supported. It scans only
index pages and does not read corresponding heap tuples. Therefore,
'dead_tuple' means the number of tuples with LP_DELETE flag.
Also, I added an experimental feature for btree indexes. It checks
fragmentation factor of indexes. If an leaf has the right link on the
next adjacent page in the file, it is assumed to be continuous (not
fragmented). It will help us to decide when to REINDEX.

I finally found some time to debug this, and I think I found a better
patch than the one you proposed. Mine is still hackish and is still a
workaround around a proper quoting solution, but at least it repairs
the parsing without introducing the \' quoting again.
I consider this a band-aid patch to fix the recent security update.
PostgreSQL gurus, would you consider applying this until a better
solution is found for DBMirror.pl?
Olivier, can you please confirm that the patch works for you, too?
Backpatched to 8.0.X.

* new split algorithm (as proposed in http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2006-06/msg00254.php)
* possible call pickSplit() for second and below columns
* add spl_(l|r)datum_exists to GIST_SPLITVEC -
pickSplit should check its values to use already defined
spl_(l|r)datum for splitting. pickSplit should set
spl_(l|r)datum_exists to 'false' (if they was 'true') to
signal to caller about using spl_(l|r)datum.
* support for old pickSplit(): not very optimal
but correct split
* remove 'bytes' field from GISTENTRY: in any case size of
value is defined by it's type.
* split GIST_SPLITVEC to two structures: one for using in picksplit
and second - for internal use.
* some code refactoring
* support of subsplit to rtree opclasses
TODO: add support of subsplit to contrib modules
tuples with less header overhead than a regular HeapTuple, per my

where it is useful.

used by OpenOffice. Dictionaries are placed at
http://lingucomponent.openoffice.org/spell_dic.html
Dictionary automatically recognizes format of files.
Warning. MySpell's format has limitation with compound
word support: it's impossible to mark affix as
compound-only affix. So for norwegian, german etc
languages it's recommended to use original ispell format.
For that reason I don't want to remove my2ispell
scripts, it's has workaround at least for norwegian language.
It required some changes in lexize algorithm, but interface with
dictionaries stays compatible with old dictionaries.
