Ok, here it is. Cleared the ctx comment too - after -p
it will be PGC_BACKEND in any case.

Oracle database to PostgreSQL.
It currently dump the database schema (tables, views, sequences,
indexes, grants), with primary, unique and foreign keys into PostgreSQL
syntax without editing the SQL code generated. You can dump only a
particular schema from the Oracle database.
Functions, procedures and triggers with SQL or PLSQL code generated must
be reviewed to match the PostgreSQL syntax. Some usefull recommandation
on porting Oracle to PostgreSQL can be found at
http://techdocs.postgresql.org/
under the "Converting from other Databases to PostgreSQL" Oracle part. I
just
notice one thing more is that the trunc() function in Oracle is the same for
number
or date so be carefull when porting to PostgreSQL to use trunc() for number
and
date_trunc() for date.
I will add more precision in type NUMBER conversion based on length to match
as closest as possible all rich PostgreSQL numerics type. But it seems not to be
urgent as it seems that Oracle DBAs only create number with length 22 (default)
Space seems not to be their problem...

a new postmaster child process. This should eliminate problems with
authentication blocking (e.g., ident, SSL init) and also reduce problems
with the accept queue filling up under heavy load.
The option to send elog output to a different file per backend (postgres -o)
has been disabled for now because the initialization would have to happen
in a different order and it's not clear we want to keep this anyway.
around. I tested this patch under Cygwin and Linux.
Note that I only changed dblink's Makefile in the most minimal way
to fix the link problem under Cygwin (i.e., use the link rule from
Makefile.shlib instead). dblink's Makefile should probably be further
patched to be consistent with the other PostgreSQL Makefiles.

tests to return the correct results per SQL9x when given NULL inputs.
Reimplement these tests as well as IS [NOT] NULL to have their own
expression node types, instead of depending on special functions.
From Joe Conway, with a little help from Tom Lane.
SI messages now include the relevant database OID, so that operations
in one database do not cause useless cache flushes in backends attached
to other databases. Declare SI messages properly using a union, to
eliminate the former assumption that Oid is the same size as int or Index.
Rewrite the nearly-unreadable code in inval.c, and document it better.
Arrange for catcache flushes at end of command/transaction to happen before
relcache flushes do --- this avoids loading a new tuple into the catcache
while setting up new relcache entry, only to have it be flushed again
immediately.
1) ERRORs cause an SQL_ERROR and the SQLSTATE='S1000'.
2) NOTICEs cause an SQL_SUCCESS_WITH_INFO and the succeeding
SQLError() returns the NOTICE message.
Here is Tomified version of my 2 pending patches.
Dropped the set_.._real change as it is not needed.
Desc would be:

modifiable repositories, I have a clean untrusted plperl patch to offer
you :)
Highlights:
* There's one perl interpreter used for both trusted and untrusted
procedures. I do think its unnecessary to keep two perl
interpreters around. If someone can break out from trusted "Safe" perl
mode, well, they can do what they want already. If someone disagrees, I
can change this.
* Opcode is not statically loaded anymore. Instead, we load Dynaloader,
which then can grab Opcode (and anything else you can 'use') on its own.
* Checked to work on FreeBSD 4.3 + perl 5.5.3 , OpenBSD 2.8 + perl5.6.1,
RedHat 6.2 + perl 5.5.3
* Uses ExtUtils::Embed to find what options are necessary to link with
perl shared libraries
* createlang is also updated, it can create untrusted perl using 'plperlu'
* Example script (assuming you have Mail::Sendmail installed):
create function foo() returns text as '
use Mail::Sendmail;
%mail = ( To => q(you@yourname.com),
From => q(me@here.com),
Message => "This is a very short message"
);
sendmail(%mail) or die $Mail::Sendmail::error;
return "OK. Log says:\n", $Mail::Sendmail::log;
' language 'plperlu';

Cygwin with the possible exception of mSQL-interface. Since I don't
have mSQL installed, I skipped this tool.
Except for dealing with a missing getopt.h (oid2name) and HUGE (seg),
the bulk of the patch uses the standard PostgreSQL approach to deal with
Windows DLL issues.
I tested the build aspect of this patch under Cygwin and Linux without
any ill affects. Note that I did not actually attempt to test the code
for functionality.
The procedure to apply the patch is as follows:
$ # save the attachment as /tmp/contrib.patch
$ # change directory to the top of the PostgreSQL source tree
$ patch -p0 </tmp/contrib.patch

CatalogCacheFlushRelation (formerly called SystemCacheRelationFlushed)
how to distinguish tuples it should flush from those it needn't; this
means a relcache flush event now only removes the catcache entries
it ought to, rather than zapping the caches completely as it used to.
Testing with the regression tests indicates that this considerably
improves the lifespan of catcache entries. Also, rearrange catcache
data structures so that the limit on number of cached tuples applies
globally across all the catcaches, rather than being per-catcache.
It was a little silly to have the same size limit on both, say,
pg_attribute caches and pg_am caches (there being only four possible
rows in the latter...). Doing LRU removal across all the caches
instead of locally in each one should reduce cache reload traffic
in the more heavily used caches and improve the efficiency of
cache memory use.
TopTransactionContext, rather than using Dllist. This simplifies and
speeds up the code, and eliminates a former risk of coredump when
out of memory (since the old code didn't bother to check for malloc
failure). It also moves us one step closer to retiring Dllist...
