This commit teaches ANALYZE to store such stats in pg_statistic, but
nothing is done yet about teaching the planner to use 'em.
Also, repair longstanding oversight in separate ANALYZE command: it
updated the pg_class.relpages and reltuples counts for the table proper,
but not for indexes.

Oh ... didn't know that you did a backpatch. Sorry

someone asked me about the FK deadlock fix, mentioned in the 7.3.3
release notes as 3rd change:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/release-7-3-3.html
Actually, that fix was available with 7.4, not 7.3. Don't know if we can
retroactively change the release-notes though.

A better workaround for the sentence would be something like:
"and it also happens that the user always has permission"
Looks easier to read, I think.

Make btree index creation and initial validation of foreign-key constraints
use maintenance_work_mem rather than work_mem as their memory limit.
Add some code to guc.c to allow these variables to be referenced by their
old names in SHOW and SET commands, for backwards compatibility.

that it's good to join where there are join clauses rather than where there
are not. Also enable it to generate bushy plans at need, so that it doesn't
fail in the presence of multiple IN clauses containing sub-joins. These
changes appear to improve the behavior enough that we can substantially reduce
the default pool size and generations count, thereby decreasing the runtime,
and yet get as good or better plans as we were getting in 7.4. Consequently,
adjust the default GEQO parameters. I also modified the way geqo_effort is
used so that it affects both population size and number of generations;
it's now useful as a single control to adjust the GEQO runtime-vs-plan-quality
tradeoff. Bump geqo_threshold to 12, since even with these changes GEQO
seems to be slower than the regular planner at 11 relations.
default value for geqo_effort is supposed to be 40, not 1. The actual
'genetic' component of the GEQO algorithm has been practically disabled
since 7.1 because of this mistake. Improve documentation while at it.

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.
ignore SIGPIPE from send() in libpq, but terminate on any other SIGPIPE,
unless the user installs their own signal handler.
This is a minor fix because the only time you get SIGPIPE from libpq's
send() is when the backend dies.
parameters to be declared with names. pg_proc has a column to store
names, and CREATE FUNCTION can insert data into it, but that's all as
yet. I need to do more work on the pg_dump and plpgsql portions of the
patch before committing those, but I thought I'd get the bulky changes
in before the tree drifts under me.

Here is an updated patch that does that.

use HAVE_SPINLOCKS in preference to HAS_TEST_AND_SET everywhere outside
s_lock.h itself.

a) ones that are 100% backward (such as the comment about
outputting this format)
and
b) ones that aren't (such as deprecating the current
postgresql shorthand of
'1Y1M'::interval = 1 year 1 minute
in favor of the ISO-8601
'P1Y1M'::interval = 1 year 1 month.
Attached is a patch that addressed all the discussed issues that
did not break backward compatability, including the ability to
output ISO-8601 compliant intervals by setting datestyle to
iso8601basic.
Interval values can now be written as ISO 8601 time intervals, using
the "Format with time-unit designators". This format always starts with
the character 'P', followed by a string of values followed
by single character time-unit designators. A 'T' separates the date and
time parts of the interval.

pg_depend to determine a safe dump order. Defaults and check constraints
can be emitted either as part of a table or domain definition, or
separately if that's needed to break a dependency loop. Lots of old
half-baked code for controlling dump order removed.
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.

--with-openssl options. This creates too much risk to pick up the wrong
directory accidentally (for example when there are lib64 directories), and
does not really help much with contemporary installation layouts.
back --infodir, which several automatic build environments expect to exist.
Add --without-docdir to prevent installation of documentation, which is
helpful for things like RPM that have their own method of installing
documentation.
large objects. Dump all these in pg_dump; also add code to pg_dump
user-defined conversions. Make psql's large object code rely on
the backend for inserting/deleting LOB comments, instead of trying to
hack pg_description directly. Documentation and regression tests added.
