implemented casts to varchar and bpchar using a cast-to-text function.
This is a holdover from before we had pg_cast; it now makes more sense
to just list these casts in pg_cast. While at it, add pg_cast entries
for the other direction (casts from varchar/bpchar) where feasible.

Currently, src/interfaces/libpq/win32.mak builds a statically-linked
library "libpq.lib", a debug dll "libpq.dll", import library for the
debug dll "libpqdll.lib", a release dll "libpq.dll", import library for
the release dll "libpqdll.lib". To avoid naming clashes, I would make
the debug dll and import libraries "libpqd.dll" and "libpqddll.lib".
Basically, the debug build uses the cl flags: "/MDd /D _DEBUG", and the
release build uses the cl flags "/MD /D NDEBUG". Usually the debug
build has a "D" suffix on the file name, so for example:
libpqd.dll libpq, debug build
libpqd.lib libpq, debug build, import library
libpq.dll libpq, release build
libpq.lib libpq, release build, import library

* shared memory attaching in EXEC_BACKEND case (+ minor fix for apparent

To those who are really interested, and there are a few of you: the attached
patch + file will allow the source base to be compiled (and, for some
definition, "run") under MingW, with the following caveats (I wanted to
first properly fix all but the last of these, but y'all won't quit asking
for a patch :-):
* child death: SIGCHLD not yet sent, so as a minimum, you'll need to
put in some sort of delay after StartupDatabase, and handle setting
StartupPID to 0 etc (ie. the stuff the reaper() signal function is supposed
to do)
* dirmod.c: comment out the elog calls
* dfmgr.c: some hackage required to substitute_libpath_macro
* slru/xact.c: comment out the errno checking after the readdir
(fixed by next version of MingW)
Again, this is only if you *really* want to see postgres compile and start,
and is a nice leg-up for working on the other Win32 TODO list items. Just
don't expect too much else from it at this point...

Also, modify code that builds finished Plan tree so that node types that

work during createplan and (probably more importantly) allows reuse of
cached selectivity estimates during indexscan planning. Also fix latent
bug: wrong plan would have been generated for a 'special operator' used
in a nestloop-inner-indexscan join qual, because the special operator
would not have gotten into the list of quals to recheck. This bug is
only latent because at present the special-operator code could never
trigger on a join qual, but sooner or later someone will want to do it.

the same relation. This implements the other useful side-effect of
conversion to CNF format, without its unpleasant side-effects. As

unusual cpp behavior breaks the process. So remove the cpp step,

teaching the latter to accept either RestrictInfo nodes or bare

condition is like 'col1 = foo AND (col2 = bar OR col2 = baz)' --- before,
the OR had to be on the first column of the index or we'd not notice the
possibility of using it. Some progress towards extracting OR indexscans
from subclauses of an OR that references multiple relations, too, although
this code is #ifdef'd out because it needs more work.
fields: now they are valid whenever the clause is a binary opclause,
not only when it is a potential join clause (there is a new boolean
field canjoin to signal the latter condition). This lets us avoid
recomputing the relid sets over and over while examining indexes.
Still more work to do to make this as useful as it could be, because
there are places that could use the info but don't have access to the
RestrictInfo node.
just look for common clauses that can be pulled out of ORs. Per recent
discussion, extracting common clauses seems to be the only really useful
effect of normalization, and if we do it explicitly then we can avoid
cluttering the qual with partially-redundant duplicated expressions, which
was an unpleasant side-effect of the old approach.

way hash_create is coded, the only side-effect was creation of a useless
