875b0c62fa When dealing with multiple grouping columns coming from the same table,
clamp the estimated number of groups to table row count over 10, instead
of table row count; this reflects a heuristic that people probably won't
group over a near-unique set of columns, and the knowledge that we don't
currently have any way to estimate the correlation of the columns better
than guessing.  This change creates a trivial plan change in one of the
regression tests.

0bf2587df4 Improve planner's estimation of the space needed for HashAgg plans:
look at the actual aggregate transition datatypes and the actual overhead
needed by nodeAgg.c, instead of using pessimistic round numbers.
Per a discussion with Michael Tiemann.

bb1bd3276e Adjust mkdir_p to do stat() before trying mkdir(). Avoids problems on
Solaris and should be a little faster anyway, since in most scenarios
all but perhaps the last path component will already exist.

5ae5e3bfe6 Check that aggregate creator has the right to execute the transition

f76730e35a Small patch to move get_grosysid() from catalog/aclchk.c to
utils/cache/lsyscache.c where it can be used by other things.  Also
cleans up both get_usesysid() and get_grosysid() a bit. From Stephen
Frost.
