In my mind there were two categories of open issues
...
a) ones that are 100% backward (such as the comment about
outputting this format)
and
b) ones that aren't (such as deprecating the current
postgresql shorthand of
'1Y1M'::interval = 1 year 1 minute
in favor of the ISO-8601
'P1Y1M'::interval = 1 year 1 month.
Attached is a patch that addressed all the discussed issues that
did not break backward compatability, including the ability to
output ISO-8601 compliant intervals by setting datestyle to
iso8601basic.
Interval values can now be written as ISO 8601 time intervals, using
the "Format with time-unit designators". This format always starts with
the character 'P', followed by a string of values followed
by single character time-unit designators. A 'T' separates the date and
time parts of the interval.

Cross-data-type comparisons are now indexable by btrees, pursuant to my

pghackers proposal of 8-Nov. All the existing cross-type comparison
operators (int2/int4/int8 and float4/float8) have appropriate support.
The original proposal of storing the right-hand-side datatype as part of
the primary key for pg_amop and pg_amproc got modified a bit in the event;
it is easier to store zero as the 'default' case and only store a nonzero
when the operator is actually cross-type. Along the way, remove the
long-since-defunct bigbox_ops operator class.

When a superuser does GRANT or REVOKE on an object he doesn't own,
...
process the command as though it were issued by the object owner.
This prevents creating weird scenarios in which the same privileges
may appear to flow from different sources, and ensures that a superuser
can in fact revoke all privileges if he wants to. In particular this
means that the regression tests work when run by a superuser other than
the original bootstrap userid. Per report from Larry Rosenman.

sensible order (at the moment anyway).
