83cd2d8b0f Make heap_fetch API more consistent by having the buffer remain pinned
in all cases when keep_buf = true.  This allows ANALYZE's inner loop to
use heap_release_fetch, which saves multiple buffer lookups for the same
page and avoids overestimation of cost by the vacuum cost mechanism.

2c66dcf684 In the new dispensation where REINDEX doesn't take exclusive lock on
the parent table, it's essential that all index accesses take some kind
of lock on the index.  I had missed vacuumlazy.c :-( ...

f1283ed6cc Fix a bunch of 'old-style parameter declaration' warnings induced by

8ec05b28b7 Modify hash_create() to elog(ERROR) if an error occurs, rather than
returning a NULL pointer (some callers remembered to check the return
value, but some did not -- it is safer to just bail out).

Also, cleanup pgstat.c to use elog(ERROR) rather than elog(LOG) followed
by exit().

9b3fc492d3 If we're going to test for switch validity by observing whether the
compiler emits any warnings, the test program had better be 100%
correct, not only 90% correct.  The recent addition of -Wold-style-definition
broke thread-safety detection on every platform that has that switch,
because the test program used an old-style definition.

9e83d73b6c Add a GUC_SUPERUSER_ONLY flag to mark GUC variables that should not be
examinable by non-superusers, and use it to protect the recently-added
GUC variables for data directory and config files.  For now I have only
flagged those variables that could be used to deduce something about
the server's filesystem layout, but possibly we should also mark vars
related to logging settings and other admin-only information?

9309d5f2ba In ALTER COLUMN TYPE, strip any implicit coercion operations appearing
at the top level of the column's old default expression before adding
an implicit coercion to the new column type.  This seems to satisfy the
principle of least surprise, as per discussion of bug #1290.

121aca39ba Minor code cleanup: hdefault() only ever returned "true", so it may as
well be declared to return "void" to save callers the trouble of
checking for errors.

c58675b428 Prevent pg_ctl from being run as root. Since it uses configuration files
owned by postgres, doing "pg_ctl start" as root could allow a privilege
escalation attack, as pointed out by iDEFENSE.  Of course the postmaster would
fail, but we ought to fail a little sooner to protect sysadmins unfamiliar
with Postgres.  The chosen fix is to disable root use of pg_ctl in all cases,
just to be confident there are no other holes.
