Don't hardcode the maximum accepted server version, use PG_VERSION instead.
Install a notice processor so notices are handled like error messages.
Word smithing.
default, but OIDS are removed from many system catalogs that don't need them.
Some interesting side effects: TOAST pointers are 20 bytes not 32 now;
pg_description has a three-column key instead of one.
Bugs fixed in passing: BINARY cursors work again; pg_class.relhaspkey
has some usefulness; pg_dump dumps comments on indexes, rules, and
triggers in a valid order.
initdb forced.
* Merges identical code from org.postgresql.jdbc[1|2].Statement into
org.postgresql.Statement.
* Moves escapeSQL() method from Connection to Statement (the only place
it's used)
* Minor cleanup of the new isolation level stuff.
* Minor cleanup of version string handling.

2. support for 'pass-by-value' arguments - to test this
we used special opclass for int4 with values in range [0-2^15]
More testing will be done after resolving problem with
index_formtuple and implementation of B-tree using GiST
3. small patch to contrib modules (seg,cube,rtree_gist,intarray) -
mark functions as 'isstrict' where needed.

Here is a context diff from latest cvs
And I see why you couldn't apply the last diff, the setCatalog diff has
been backed out, that was causing the compile problem in the first
place.
This following one needs to be applied to allow the current cvs to
compile

clauses are equal(), before trying to match them up using btree opclass
inference rules. This allows it to recognize many simple cases involving
non-btree operations, for example 'x IS NULL'. Clean up code a little.
Make sure it exits immediately when collector process dies --- in old code,
buffer process would hang around and compete with the new buffer process
for packets. Make sure it doesn't block on writing the pipe when the
collector falls more than a pipeload behind. Avoid leaking pgstats FDs
into every backend.

The Debian bug report says, "The upstream source makes use of NOFILE
unconditionalized. As the Hurd doesn't have an arbitrary limit on the
number of open files, this is not defined. But _SC_OPEN_MAX works fine
and returns 1024 (applications can increase this as they want), so I
suggest the below diff. Please forward this upstream, too."

1) improves performance of commit/rollback by reducing number of round
trips to the server
2) uses 7.1 functionality for setting the transaction isolation level
3) backs out a patch from 11 days ago because that code failed to
compile under jdk1.1
Details:
1) The old code was doing the following for each commit:
commit
begin
set transaction isolation level xxx
thus a call to commit was performing three round trips to the database.
The new code does this in one round trip as:
commit; begin; set transaction isolation level xxx
In a simple test program that performs 1000 transactions (where each
transaction does one simple select inside that transaction) has the
following before and after timings:
Client and Server on same machine
old new
--- ---
1.877sec 1.405sec 25.1% improvement
Client and Server on different machines
old new
--- ---
4.184sec 2.927sec 34.3% improvement
(all timings are an average of four different runs)
2) The driver was using 'set transaction isolation level xxx' at the
begining of each transaction, instead of using the new 7.1 syntax of
'set session characteristics as transaction isolation level xxx' which
only needs to be done once instead of for each transaction. This is
done conditionally (i.e. if server is 7.0 or older do the old behaviour,
else do the new behaviour) to not break backward compatibility. This
also required the movement of some code to check/test database version
numbers from the DatabaseMetaData object to the Connection object.
3) Finally while testing, I discovered that the code that was checked in
11 days ago actually didn't compile. The code in the patch for
Connection.setCatalog() used Properties.setProperty() which only exists
in JDK1.2 or higher. Thus compiling the JDBC1 driver failed as this
method doesn't exist. Thus I backed out that patch.

platforms system(2) gets confused unless the signal handler is set to
SIG_DFL, not SIG_IGN. pgstats.c now uses pqsignal() as it should,
not signal(). Also, arrange for the stats collector process to show
a reasonable ID in 'ps', rather than looking like a postmaster.
