2. varsup.c:ReadNewTransactionId(): don't read nextXid from disk -
this func doesn't allocate next xid, so ShmemVariableCache->nextXid
may be used (but GetNewTransactionId() must be called first).
3. vacuum.c: change elog(ERROR, "Child item....") to elog(NOTICE) -
this is not ERROR, proper handling is just not implemented, yet.
4. s_lock.c: increase S_MAX_BUSY by 2 times.
5. shmem.c:GetSnapshotData(): have to call ReadNewTransactionId()
_after_ SpinAcquire(ShmemIndexLock).
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.

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.
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.
From: Massimo Dal Zotto <dz@cs.unitn.it>
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.
From: Massimo Dal Zotto <dz@cs.unitn.it>
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.
From: Massimo Dal Zotto <dz@cs.unitn.it>
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.

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).
