Bruce Momjian 76beb79d27 in the tutorial, chapter 2., "Relational Data Model Formalities"
(sql490.htm), there is

"set of all k-tuples v1, v2, ... vk, such that v1 [isin] D1, v1 [isin] D1"

i assume it should be
"set of all k-tuples v1, v2, ... vk, such that v1 [isin] D1, v2 [isin] D2"

Bruce Momjian 87070ccc13 It looks Ok, but it has one unnecessary step. There is no need to do the "mv
privkey.pem cert.pem.pw" if you just use "privkey.pem" in the following
openssl command (e.g. openssl rsa -in privkey.pem -out cert.pem".
But there is nothing wrong with it as it is now, as far as I can see.

Bruce Momjian d128852358 In the Programmer's Guide, the sample code for accessing large objects
from libpq has two functions with memory leaks.

The functions pickout() and overwrite() malloc space for buf which is
never freed.

See
http://www.postgresql.org/users-lounge/docs/7.0/programmer/largeobjects3207.htm

This problem is also in the 6.5 docs at

Bruce Momjian df389d161d Approaching the current documentation from a position of ignorance, I
find it ambiguous.  I propose something along the lines of the
following patch to clarify it.  Thanks.

(Alternatively, perhaps the code could maintain a count of nested
calls to SPI_connect/SPI_finish.  But I didn't try to write that
patch.)

of SQL_inheritance SET variable: it is not cool to look at this var
during the initial parsing phase, only during parse_analyze().  See
recent bug report concerning misinterpretation of date constants just
after a SET TIMEZONE command.  gram.y really has to be an invariant
transformation of the query string to a raw parsetree; anything that
can vary with time must be done during parse analysis.
