testing ownership if the caller isn't interested in any GOPTION bits
(which is the common case). It did not matter in 8.0 where the ownership
test was just a trivial equality test, but it matters now.
level for unrecognized win32 error codes to LOG, and make messages
conform to style guide. Per old suggestion from Qingqing Zhou, which
seems to have gotten lost in the shuffle.
Remove unportable use of tfind/tsearch in favor of bsearch. Fix up
random number generator to use random() not rand() and to actually honor
its min/max arguments properly. That wasn't so important before, but
with exposure of capability to ask for general ranges, it will be.

cache lookup in the success case. This won't help much for cases where
the given relation is far down the search path, but it does not hurt in
any cases either; and it requires only a little new code. Per gripe from
Jim Nasby about slowness of \d with many tables.
the parameter's name (if any) as the default column name for SELECT FROM
the function, rather than the function name as previously. I still think
this is a bad idea, but I lost the argument. Force decompilation of
function RTEs to specify full aliases always, to reduce the odds of this
decision breaking dumped views.
predicate_implied_by() to detect redundant filter conditions, but forgot
that predicate_implied_by() assumes its first argument contains only
immutable functions. Add a check to guarantee that. Also, test to see
if filter conditions can be discarded because they are redundant with
the predicate of a partial index.
generated by bitmap index scans. Along the way, simplify and speed up
the code for counting sequential and index scans; it was both confusing
and inefficient to be taking care of that in the per-tuple loops, IMHO.
initdb forced because of internal changes in pg_stat view definitions.
was created on a machine with alignment rules and floating-point format
similar to the current machine. Per recent discussion, this seems like
a good idea with the increasing prevalence of 32/64 bit environments.
argument as a 'regclass' value instead of a text string. The frontend
conversion of text string to pg_class OID is now encapsulated as an
implicitly-invocable coercion from text to regclass. This provides
backwards compatibility to the old behavior when the sequence argument
is explicitly typed as 'text'. When the argument is just an unadorned
literal string, it will be taken as 'regclass', which means that the
stored representation will be an OID. This solves longstanding problems
with renaming sequences that are referenced in default expressions, as
well as new-in-8.1 problems with renaming such sequences' schemas or
moving them to another schema. All per recent discussion.
Along the way, fix some rather serious problems in dbmirror's support
for mirroring sequence operations (int4 vs int8 confusion for instance).
