predicate of the form 'foo IS NOT NULL' is implied by a WHERE clause
that uses 'foo' in any strict operator or function. Per suggestion
and preliminary implementation by John Siracusa; some further hacking
by moi.
and, dblink_fetch -- allows ERROR on remote side of connection to
throw NOTICE locally instead of ERROR. Also removed documentation for
previously deprecated, now removed, functions.
have been able to significantly improve the contrib/xml XPath
integration code.
New features:
* XPath set-returning function allows multiple results from an several
XPath queries to be used as a virtual table.
* Using libxslt, XSLT transformations (with and without parameters) are
supported. (Caution: This support allows generic URL fetching from
within the backend as well).
I've removed the old code so that it is all libxml based. Rather than
attach as a patch, I've put the tar.gz (10k!) at
http://www.azuli.co.uk/pgxml-1.0.tar.gz
(all files in archive are xml/....).
I think this is worth replacing the contrib version with, even though
the function names have changed (though the same functionality is
there), because it includes a SRF and some SPI usage, in addition to
linking to an external library. And it isn't a big module! Obviously, I
understand that people might prefer to move it elsewhere, or might have
reservations about replacing an existing contrib module with an
incompatible one. I'm open to suggestions.

support for 'week' within the date_trunc function.
Within the patch I added a couple of test cases and associated target
output, and changed the documentation to add 'week' appropriately.

* Mostly, casting etc to remove compilation warnings in win32 only code.
* main.c: set _IONBF to stdout/stderr under win32 (under win32, _IOLBF
defaults to full buffering)
* pg_resetxlog/Makefile: ensures dirmod.o gets cleaned (got bitten by
this when, after "make clean"ing, switching compilation between Ming +
Cygwin)

float8 types. This begins the deprecation of this feature: in 7.6,
this input will be rejected.
Also added a new error code for warnings about deprecated features,
and updated the regression tests.
object types, rather than by OID. This should help ensure consistent
dump output from databases that are logically the same but have different
histories, per recent discussion about 'diffing' databases. The patch
is bulky because of renaming of fields, but not very complicated.
Also, do some tweaking to cause BLOB restoration to be done in a better
order, and clean up pg_restore's textual output to exactly match pg_dump.
which are munged by sed, such as:
/e/cygwin/opt/diff9c/pgsql/src/test/regress/data/agg.data to be
correctly passed as:

FWIW, "fixes" a large (> 20) tests under Win32.
