82511e3375 In create_function there is a remark concerning SQL/PSM not
being ratified as yet. This is certainly no longer true, it wasn't
even true in Q2/1998 when I did a little research for Date's book.
SQL/PSM had been published on 1996-12-15 as ISO/IEC 9075:4. So you
might want to update that section.

e6767a3205 Final markup for 7.1 hardcopy release. Mostly typo and table-fitting
adjustments. Note that many tables are being abused with *really* long
 description columns. Should probably shrink those columns to be more
 concise, and move some of the info to follow-on reference notes.

072174f941 Add option --refentry to change \keepn (keep with next paragraph) to
\keep (keep current paragraph together). This fixes most troubles with
 reference pages marked up with <refentry> tags.

341cb70044 The following patch updates the FAQ_AIX and makes C++ code work with
more recent versions of the IBM C++ compiler (now called VisualAge C++).
The C++ part was previously broken (g++ and xlC), thus this is zero risk.
Only AIX specific parts are touched (1 Makefile.shlib line (link with $(COMPILER
) instead
of $(CC) and one shell script line (parameter -C to nm to not demangle C++ symbo
ls for
.exp file)).

I thus ask you to please apply this patch before release.

With or without this patch RC1 on AIX 4.3.2 RS6000 passes "gmake check" for both
 the native
compiler vac.C 5.0.1 and gcc 2.95.2 :-)

39ceedf5e0 The regexp pattern characters ^ and $ should be explained as matching
at the beginning and end of the input string, not the beginning and end
of "a line", since Postgres does not allow them to match at newline
characters in the data.

by XLogInsert.
