index, etc is too long, truncate until it fits.

27b8143944 Hi,
I have updated my contrib code for version 6.5. In the attachment you will
find the directories array, datetime, miscutil, string, tools and userlocks
which replace the corresponding directories under contrib.

In contrib/tools you will find some developement scripts which I use while
hacking the sources. I hope they will be useful for some other people.

I have also added a contrib/Makefile which tries to compile and install all
the contribs. Unfortunately many of them don't have a Makefile or don't
compile cleanly.

e7253d893c Remove redeclarations of default parameter values from
PgDatabase::DisplayTuples and PgDatabase::PrintTuples.  This is incorrect
according to strict interpretation of the C++ spec, and some compilers
will reject it.  Also silence g++ warning about unused parameter.

93b57eb533 trace.patch (compilation error)
the gettimeofday doesn't compile under Linux with glibc2 because
        the DST_NONE constant is no more defined. It seems that this code
        (written by me) has always be wrong but for some reason working.

dbaab4a4d4 man.patch (make inconsistency)
the default target is 'install' instead of 'all'. So if you do a
        make without target you actually do a make install, which is not
        what one normally expects from a standard makefile.

840306af04 ecpg.patch (wrong makefile expansion in some cases)
the ecpg Makefiles use a variable DESTDIR which is never defined
        except by debian/rules makefile, in which case the ecpg makefiles
        expand wrong pathnames. If we want to support a DESTDIR root it
        must be done consistently in all the makefiles, not just in ecpg.

857c079304 Suppress indexes on large objects from psql's \d listing;
they were confusing because the large object tables themselves are not
shown.  (Besides, if you've got hundreds or thousands of large objects,
you really don't want to see 'em at all.)
Also, suppress all indexes from the \z ACL listing, since indexes have
no meaningful protection information.

SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL READ COMMITTED;
                                ^^^^ required

Also note that SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL change
isolevel for _current_ transaction, in accordance with
standard, not for session (ALTER SESSION is used in Oracle,
but it's not implemented currently).

And I would don't mention SET XACTISOLEVEL TO ...
form at all.

Please update set.sgml - I failed to understand all these

SET TIME ZONE { '<REPLACEABLE CLASS="PARAMETER">

now.

155b5808ca Thanks for this, but SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL
should be described like SET TIME ZONE: TO is not allowed, as well
as DEFAULT option. There are only two forms:

9680a71205 1. MyProc->xid assignment is moved to GetNewTransactionId so newer
transactions will not assume that MyProc transaction was committed
   before snapshot calculations. With old MyProc->xid assignment
   (in xact.c:StartTransaction()) there was ability to see the same
   row twice (I used gdb for this)!...
2. Assignments of InvalidTransactionId to MyProc->xid and MyProc->xmin
   are moved from xact.c:CommitTransaction() to
   xact.c:RecordTransactionCommit() - this invalidation must be done
   before releasing transaction locks or bad (too high) XmaxRecent value
   might be used by vacuum ("ERROR:  Child itemid marked as unused"
   reported by "Hiroshi Inoue" <Inoue@tpf.co.jp>; once again, gdb
   allowed me reproduce this error).
