on UPDATE.
This get's rid of the long standing annoyance that updating a row
that has foreign keys locks all the referenced rows even if the
foreign key values do not change.
The trick is to actually do a check identical to NO ACTION after an
eventually done UPDATE in the SET DEFAULT case. Since a SET DEFAULT
operation should have moved referencing rows to a new "home", a following
NO ACTION check can only fail if the column defaults of the referencing
table resulted in the key we actually deleted. Thanks to Stephan.

find out about it is to read the documentation that tells you how
dangerous it is. Add default_transaction_read_only to documentation;
seems to have been overlooked in patch that added read-only transactions.
Clean up check_guc comparison script, which has been suffering bit rot.
an unneeded memory context and some variables that are not used anymore.
It's pretty trivial and the regression tests pass fine. There's no
change in functionality, only deletion of unused code. I left an empty
function because maybe I'll need it for nested transactions.

harmless on signed-char machines but would lead to core dump in the
deadlock detection code if char is unsigned. Amazingly, this bug has
been here since 7.1 and yet wasn't reported till now. Thanks to Robert
Bruccoleri for providing the opportunity to track it down.
typing error in src/backend/libpq/be-secure.c ???
Long Description
In src/backend/libpq/be-secure.c: secure_write
on SSL_ERROR_WANT_WRITE call secure_read instead
secure_write again. May be is this a typing error?

page when it's read in, per pghackers discussion around 17-Feb. Add a
GUC variable zero_damaged_pages that causes the response to be a WARNING
followed by zeroing the page, rather than the normal ERROR; this is per
Hiroshi's suggestion that there needs to be a way to get at the data
in the rest of the table.
include output that vary depending on the python build one is
running. Basically, the order of keys in a dictionary is
non-deterministic, and that part of the test fails for me regularly.
I rewrote the test to work around this problem, and include a patch
file with that change and the change to the expected otuput as well.
