instead of int, change the calculation method to use the haversine
formula
which is more accurrate for short distances, added a grant to public for
geo_distance and added a regression test.
I will resubmit the earth distance stuff based on cube after 7.3 is
released.

Ok, fair enough. It's worth noting that they've been broken for a
while -- for example, the HashJoin counter increments were broken when
you comitted r1.20 of executor/nodeHashJoin.c in May of '99.
I've attached a revised patch that doesn't remove the counters (but
doesn't increment them either: I'm not sure of all the places where
the counter should be incremented).

composite types. Add a couple more lsyscache.c routines to support this,
and make use of them in some other places that were doing lookups the
hard way.
ruleutils display is not such a great idea. For arguments of functions
and operators I think we'd better keep the historical behavior of showing
such casts explicitly, to ensure that the function/operator is reparsed
the same way when the rule is reloaded. This also makes the output of
EXPLAIN less obscurantist about exactly what's happening.
to be flexible about assignment casts without introducing ambiguity in
operator/function resolution. Introduce a well-defined promotion hierarchy
for numeric datatypes (int2->int4->int8->numeric->float4->float8).
Change make_const to initially label numeric literals as int4, int8, or
numeric (never float8 anymore).
Explicitly mark Func and RelabelType nodes to indicate whether they came
from a function call, explicit cast, or implicit cast; use this to do
reverse-listing more accurately and without so many heuristics.
Explicit casts to char, varchar, bit, varbit will truncate or pad without
raising an error (the pre-7.2 behavior), while assigning to a column without
any explicit cast will still raise an error for wrong-length data like 7.3.
This more nearly follows the SQL spec than 7.2 behavior (we should be
reporting a 'completion condition' in the explicit-cast cases, but we have
no mechanism for that, so just do silent truncation).
Fix some problems with enforcement of typmod for array elements;
it didn't work at all in 'UPDATE ... SET array[n] = foo', for example.
Provide a generalized array_length_coerce() function to replace the
specialized per-array-type functions that used to be needed (and were
missing for NUMERIC as well as all the datetime types).
Add missing conversions int8<->float4, text<->numeric, oid<->int8.
initdb forced.
(notify/SI-overrun interrupt) while it is in process of doing proc_exit,
it is possible for Async_NotifyHandler() to try to start a transaction
when one is already running. This leads to Asserts() or worse. I think
it may only be possible to occur when frontend synchronization is lost
(ie, the elog(FATAL) in SocketBackend() fires), but that is a standard
occurrence after error during COPY. In any case, I have seen this
failure occur during regression tests, so it is definitely possible.
non-standard regression test, and adds standard installcheck regression test
support.
The test creates a second database (regression_slave) and drops it again, in
order to avoid the cheesy-ness of connecting back to the same database ;-)

contrib/tablefunc. Specifically it replaces the use of VIEWs (for needed
composite type creation) with use of CREATE TYPE. It also performs GRANT
EXECUTE ON FUNCTION foo() TO PUBLIC for all of the created functions. There
was also a cosmetic change to two regression files.

fmgr.h - it's discouraged to access fcinfo directly but there is no
macro to get the number of arguments passed to the function. Checking
the number of arguments is often useful when you have a function which
can be called like:
func('arg');
func(null);
func();
all mapping to the same C function.
the macro has a function-like appearance to match the other PG_*
macros.
