I have updated the pg_dump version so old binary dumps will load fine.
Pre-7.5 dumps use WITHOUT OIDS in SQL were needed, so they should be
fine.

Magnus Hagander
remove separate implementation of ALTER TABLE SET WITHOUT OIDS in favor
of doing a regular DROP. Also, cause CREATE TABLE to account completely
correctly for the inheritance status of the OID column. This fixes
problems with dropping OID columns that have dependencies, as noted by
Christopher Kings-Lynne, as well as making sure that you can't drop an
OID column that was inherited from a parent.
listen_addresses parameter, as per recent discussion. The default behavior
is now to listen on localhost, which eliminates the need for the -i

in one query, rather than making a separate query for each object that
could have a comment. This costs relatively little space (a few tens of
K typically) and saves substantial time in databases with many objects.
I find it reduces the runtime of 'pg_dump -s regression' by about a
third.

so that the 'val' is computed only once, per recent discussion. The
speedup is not much when 'val' is just a simple variable, but could be
significant for larger expressions. More importantly this avoids issues
with multiple evaluations of a volatile 'val', and it allows the CASE
expression to be reverse-listed in its original form by ruleutils.c.
directly to the appropriate per-node execution function, using a function
pointer stored by ExecInitExpr. This speeds things up by eliminating one
level of function call. The function-pointer technique also enables further
small improvements such as only making one-time tests once (and then
changing the function pointer). Overall this seems to gain about 10%
on evaluation of simple expressions, which isn't earthshaking but seems
a worthwhile gain for a relatively small hack. Per recent discussion
on pghackers.
i've attached this again.
Additionally I include a small patch to remove mutex locking when a
DEFAULT/NULL connection is being retrieved. This is consistent with

implemented casts to varchar and bpchar using a cast-to-text function.
This is a holdover from before we had pg_cast; it now makes more sense
to just list these casts in pg_cast. While at it, add pg_cast entries
for the other direction (casts from varchar/bpchar) where feasible.

In particular, don't depend on strtod() to accept 'NaN' and 'Infinity'

Currently, src/interfaces/libpq/win32.mak builds a statically-linked
library "libpq.lib", a debug dll "libpq.dll", import library for the
debug dll "libpqdll.lib", a release dll "libpq.dll", import library for
the release dll "libpqdll.lib". To avoid naming clashes, I would make
the debug dll and import libraries "libpqd.dll" and "libpqddll.lib".
Basically, the debug build uses the cl flags: "/MDd /D _DEBUG", and the
release build uses the cl flags "/MD /D NDEBUG". Usually the debug
build has a "D" suffix on the file name, so for example:
libpqd.dll libpq, debug build
libpqd.lib libpq, debug build, import library
libpq.dll libpq, release build
libpq.lib libpq, release build, import library

equivalent sort expressions to use was broken: you can't just look
at the relation membership, you have to actually grovel over the
individual Vars in each expression. I think this did work when it
was written, but it was broken by subsequent optimizations that made
join relations not propagate every single input variable upward.
Must find the Var that got propagated, not choose one at random.

* configure + Makefile changes
* shared memory attaching in EXEC_BACKEND case (+ minor fix for apparent
cygwin bug under cygwin/EXEC_BACKEND case only)
* PATH env var separator differences
* missing win32 rand functions added
* placeholder replacements for sync etc under port.h
To those who are really interested, and there are a few of you: the attached
patch + file will allow the source base to be compiled (and, for some
definition, "run") under MingW, with the following caveats (I wanted to
first properly fix all but the last of these, but y'all won't quit asking
for a patch :-):
* child death: SIGCHLD not yet sent, so as a minimum, you'll need to
put in some sort of delay after StartupDatabase, and handle setting
StartupPID to 0 etc (ie. the stuff the reaper() signal function is supposed
to do)
* dirmod.c: comment out the elog calls
* dfmgr.c: some hackage required to substitute_libpath_macro
* slru/xact.c: comment out the errno checking after the readdir
(fixed by next version of MingW)
Again, this is only if you *really* want to see postgres compile and start,
and is a nice leg-up for working on the other Win32 TODO list items. Just
don't expect too much else from it at this point...
