regression test on a FreeBSD box with both non-MULTIBYTE and
MULTIBYTE-enabled, and confirmed that the results are same.
However I do not tested on PCs(I don't have access to win). Please let
me know if the patches break anything on PCs.
Also please note that the patch for varchar.c is a fix for a nasty bug
of char(n) types that I introduced and I believe at least this should
be applied.

and make backend/libpq/pqcomm.c only try to lock the socket file when
the call exists. Also, change open-RDONLY to open-WRONLY; at least
on my platform, you can't get a write lock on a file you didn't open
for writing.

for against a just updated CVS tree. It contains
Partial new rewrite system that handles subselects, view
aggregate columns, insert into select from view, updates
with set col = view-value and select rules restriction to
view definition.
Updates for rule/view backparsing utility functions to
handle subselects correct.
New system views pg_tables and pg_indexes (where you can
see the complete index definition in the latter one).
Enabling array references on query parameters.
Bugfix for functional index.
Little changes to system views pg_rules and pg_views.
The rule system isn't a release-stopper any longer.
But another stopper is that I don't know if the latest
changes to PL/pgSQL (not already in CVS) made it compile on
AIX. Still wait for some response from Dave.

parameters. With it applied a function like
CREATE FUNCTION getname(oid8, int4) RETURNS name AS
'SELECT typname FROM pg_type WHERE oid = $1[$2]'
LANGUAGE 'sql';
is possible. Mainly I need this to enable array references in
expressions for PL/pgSQL. Complete regression test ran O.K.

and what wasn't. Also try to improve the comments so that doesn't happen
again. Changed SIGPIPE handling to SIG_IGN so that if frontend quits,
we will finish out the current command and return to main loop before
quitting. This seems much safer than a forced abort mid-command.
Add "timestamp" to list of tokens in keywords.c.
Before, TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE did not actually parser.
Reorder token lists to be more alphabetical.
Remove ARCHIVE keyword which was deprecated in v6.3.
Change DEFAULT NULL to send back a NULL pointer
rather than a string "NULL". This seems to work, where sending
the string led to type conversion problems (and probably the wrong
thing anyway).
rather than func_select_candidate().
Fix oper_select_candidate() to work with a single operator argument.
Repair left operator checking for null return from candidate list.
implementations of strtol() treat empty strings ("") as invalid arguments
while others convert this (erroneously, IHMO) to zero (0). Assuming that the
expected behaviour of pg_atoi() is to return 0 if it is passed an empty
string, I am supplying the following patch to explictly check for an empty
string in pg_atoi() and return 0 if the string is empty. The patch will also
trap a NULL character pointer being passed to pg_atoi() and will use elog() to
print out an error message if the input char pointer is NULL.

I put some extra checks to make sure a query was a good candidate for
rewrite into a UNION. Besides the existing checks:
1. Make sure the AND/OR tree was rectangular. ( i.e. 3 X 4 or 10 X
3)
2. Only one table.
3. Must have an AND dimension.
4. At least 9 OP expressions total
Also cleaned up and commented.

Sorry, I didn't know it is a GNU extension. I have written this patch
which should fix the problem. Let me know if you still have problems.

(of course I have confirmed -O2 works with this patch).
BTW, here is a platforms/regression test failure(serious one--backend
death) matrix.

After some playing with gdb I found that in printtup() there is a non null
attribute with typeinfo->attrs[i]->atttypid = 0 (invalid oid). Unfortunately
attibutes with invalid type are neither printed nor marked as null, and this
explains why psql doesn't get all the expected data.
So I made this patch to printtup():
I don't know if this is really related to the initdb problem
discussion (haven't followed it enough). But seems so because
it fixes a damn problem during index tuple insertion on
CREATE TABLE into pg_attribute_relid_attnum_index.
Anyway - this bug was really hard to find. During startup the
relcache reads in some prepared information about index
strategies from a file and then reinitializes the function
pointers inside the scanKey data. But for sake it assumed
single attribute index tuples (hasn't that changed recently).
Thus not all the strategies scanKey entries where initialized
properly, resulting in invalid addresses for the btree
comparision functions.
With the patch at the end the regression tests passed
excellent except for the sanity_check that crashed at vacuum
and the misc test where the select unique1 from onek2 outputs
the two rows in different order.
