I've enclosed two patches. The first affects Solaris compilability. The
bug stems from netdb.h (where MAXHOSTNAMELEN is defined on a stock
system). If the user has installed the header files from BIND 4.9.x,
there will be no definition of MAXHOSTNAMELEN. The patch will, if all
else fails, try to include <arpa/nameser.h> and set MAXHOSTNAMELEN to
MAXDNAME, which is 256 (just like MAXHOSTNAMELEN on a stock system).
The second patch adds aliases for "ISNULL" to "IS NULL" and likewise for
"NOTNULL" to "IS NOT NULL". I have not removed the postgres specific
ISNULL and NOTNULL. I noticed this on the TODO list, and figured it would
be easy to remove.
The full semantics are:
[ expression IS NULL ]
[ expression IS NOT NULL ]

This is a patch to prevent an endless loop occuring in the Postgres backend
when a 'warning' error condition generates another warning error contition
in the handler code.
