The buildfarm isn't very happy with the results of commit e1bd684a34.
To try to get the expected exact results everywhere:
* Replace M_PI / 180 subexpressions with a precomputed constant, so that
the compiler can't decide to rearrange that division with an adjacent
operation. Hopefully this will fix failures to get exactly 0.5 from
sind(30) and cosd(60).
* Add scaling to ensure that tand(45) and cotd(45) give exactly 1; there
was nothing particularly guaranteeing that before.
* Replace minus zero by zero when tand() or cotd() would output that;
many machines did so for tand(180) and cotd(270), but not all. We could
alternatively deem both results valid, but that doesn't seem likely to
be what users will want.
The implementations go to some lengths to deliver exact results for values
where an exact result can be expected, such as sind(30) = 0.5 exactly.

This reverts commit 500cf66d55. As was
more or less expected, a small minority of platforms won't accept
denormalized input even with the recent changes. It doesn't seem
especially helpful to test this if we're going to have to provide an
alternate expected-file to allow failure.
This was submitted with the previous patch, but I'm committing it
separately to ease backing it out if these results prove too unportable.

the fact that NetBSD/mips is currently broken, as per buildfarm member pika.
Also add regression tests to ensure that get_float8_nan and get_float4_nan
are exercised even on platforms where they are not needed by
float8in/float4in.

valid result from a computation if one of the input values was infinity.
The previous code assumed an operation that returned infinity was an
overflow.
Handle underflow/overflow consistently, and add checks for aggregate
overflow.
Consistently prevent Inf/Nan from being cast to integer data types.
Fix INT_MIN % -1 to prevent overflow.
Update regression results for new error text.
Per report from Roman Kononov.
as well as the existing pg_catalog entries for prefix and postfix %.
These have never been documented, though they did appear in one old
regression test. This avoids surprising behavior in cases like
"SELECT -25 % -10". Per recent discussion.
Note: although there is a catalog change here, I did not force initdb
since there's no harm in leaving the inaccessible entries in one's
copy of pg_operator.
in UPDATE. We also now issue a NOTICE if a query has _any_ implicit
range table entries -- in the past, we would only warn about implicit
RTEs in SELECTs with at least one explicit RTE.
As a result of the warning change, 25 of the regression tests had to
be updated. I also took the opportunity to remove some bogus whitespace
differences between some of the float4 and float8 variants. I believe
I have correctly updated all the platform-specific variants, but let
me know if that's not the case.
Original patch for DELETE ... USING from Euler Taveira de Oliveira,
reworked by Neil Conway.
Regression tests and documentation have both been updated.
SQL2003 requires that both ceiling() and ceil() be present, so I have
documented both spellings. SQL2003 doesn't mention pow() as far as I
can see, so I decided to replace pow() with power() in the documentation:
there is little reason to encourage the continued usage of a function
that isn't compliant with the standard, given a standard-compliant
alternative.
RELEASE NOTES: should state that pow() is considered deprecated
(although I don't see the need to ever remove it.)
