very narrow window in which SimpleLruReadPage or SimpleLruWritePage could
think that I/O was needed when it wasn't (and indeed the buffer had already
been assigned to another page). This would result in an Assert failure if
Asserts were enabled, and probably in silent data corruption if not.

I intend a more extensive fix when 8.2 development starts, but this is a
reasonably low-impact patch for the existing branches.

settings since Windows does not get its locale from the environment.

of postgres.imp file into BE_DLLLIBS macro. This makes the AIX build
work more like the Windows and Darwin builds, which have similar requirements
to mention a backend library when linking shared libraries that will be
dynamically loaded into the backend.
multixact's starting offset before the offset has been stored into the
SLRU file. A simple fix would be to hold the MultiXactGenLock until the
offset has been stored, but that looks like a big concurrency hit. Instead
rely on knowledge that unset offsets will be zero, and loop when we see
a zero. This requires a little extra hacking to ensure that zero is never
a valid value for the offset. Problem reported by Matteo Beccati, fix
ideas from Martijn van Oosterhout, Alvaro Herrera, and Tom Lane.
advance its usage_count. This includes writes of dirty buffers triggered
by bgwriter, checkpoint, or FlushRelationBuffers, as well as various
corner cases that really ought not count as accesses to the page.
Should make for some marginal improvement in the quality of our decisions
about when to recycle buffers. Per suggestion from ITAGAKI Takahiro.

inFromCl true, meaning that they will list out as explicit RTEs if they
are in a view or rule. Update comments about inFromCl to reflect the way
it's now actually used. Per recent discussion.
for an outer join; symptom is bogus error "RIGHT JOIN is only supported with
merge-joinable join conditions". Problem was that select_mergejoin_clauses
did its tests in the wrong order. We need to force left join not right join
for a merge join when there are non-mergeable join clauses; but the test for
this only accounted for mergejoinability of the clause operator, and not
whether the left and right Vars were of the proper relations. Per report
from Jean-Pierre Pelletier.

some small stylistic improvements in these functions. Also fix several
places where TMODULO() was being used with wrong-sized quotient argument,
creating a risk of overflow --- interval2tm was actually capable of going
into an infinite loop because of this.

from the main thread, thereby allowing us to re-enable Qingqing Zhou's
