neqsel now behave as per my suggestions in pghackers a few days ago.
selectivity for < > <= >= should work OK for integral types as well, but
still need work for nonintegral types. Since these routines have never
actually executed before :-(, this may result in some significant changes
in the optimizer's choices of execution plans. Let me know if you see
any serious misbehavior.
CAUTION: THESE CHANGES REQUIRE INITDB. pg_statistic table has changed.

and possibly for other cases too:
DO NOT cache status of transaction in unknown state
(i.e. non-committed and non-aborted ones)
Example:
T1 reads row updated/inserted by running T2 and cache T2 status.
T2 commits.
Now T1 reads a row updated by T2 and with HEAP_XMAX_COMMITTED
in t_infomask (so cached T2 status is not changed).
Now T1 EvalPlanQual gets updated row version without HEAP_XMIN_COMMITTED
-> TransactionIdDidCommit(t_xmin) and TransactionIdDidAbort(t_xmin)
return FALSE and T2 decides that t_xmin is not committed and gets
ERROR above.
It's too late to find more smart way to handle such cases and so
I just changed xact status caching and got rid TransactionIdFlushCache()
from code.
Changed: transam.c, xact.c, lmgr.c and transam.h - last three
just because of TransactionIdFlushCache() is removed.
2. heapam.c:
T1 marked a row for update. T2 waits for T1 commit/abort.
T1 commits. T3 updates the row before T2 locks row page.
Now T2 sees that new row t_xmax is different from xact id (T1)
T2 was waiting for. Old code did Assert here. New one goes to
HeapTupleSatisfiesUpdate. Obvious changes too.
3. Added Assert to vacuum.c
4. bufmgr.c: break
Assert(buf->r_locks == 0 && !buf->ri_lock)
into two Asserts.
2. varsup.c:ReadNewTransactionId(): don't read nextXid from disk -
this func doesn't allocate next xid, so ShmemVariableCache->nextXid
may be used (but GetNewTransactionId() must be called first).
3. vacuum.c: change elog(ERROR, "Child item....") to elog(NOTICE) -
this is not ERROR, proper handling is just not implemented, yet.
4. s_lock.c: increase S_MAX_BUSY by 2 times.
5. shmem.c:GetSnapshotData(): have to call ReadNewTransactionId()
_after_ SpinAcquire(ShmemIndexLock).
2. Get rid of locking when updating statistics in vacuum.
3. Use QuerySnapshot in COPY TO and call SetQuerySnashot
in main tcop loop before FETCH and COPY TO.
to save a little bit of backend startup time. This way, the first
backend started after a VACUUM will rebuild the init file with up-to-date
statistics for the critical system indexes.
2. Much faster btree tuples deletion in the case when first on page
index tuple is deleted (no movement to the left page(s)).
3. Remember blkno of new root page in BTPageOpaque of
left/right siblings when root page is splitted.
Ok. I made patches replacing all of "#if FALSE" or "#if 0" to "#ifdef
NOT_USED" for current. I have tested these patches in that the
postgres binaries are identical.
Here are two new patches for the Win32 support.
1) The patch based on the one from Hiroshi Inoue [Inoue@tpf.co.jp], to
load
Winsock.dll from libpq.dll.
2) A patch for psql.c to remove the call to WSAStartup(), since it is
not
required when it's done in libpq.dll.
I'm still looking for the possibility of having a crypt() function in
libpq.dll too, the same way getopt was included. Any chance of getting
this
before 6.4, or should we wait for the next one?

I don't know if this is really related to the initdb problem
discussion (haven't followed it enough). But seems so because
it fixes a damn problem during index tuple insertion on
CREATE TABLE into pg_attribute_relid_attnum_index.
Anyway - this bug was really hard to find. During startup the
relcache reads in some prepared information about index
strategies from a file and then reinitializes the function
pointers inside the scanKey data. But for sake it assumed
single attribute index tuples (hasn't that changed recently).
Thus not all the strategies scanKey entries where initialized
properly, resulting in invalid addresses for the btree
comparision functions.
With the patch at the end the regression tests passed
excellent except for the sanity_check that crashed at vacuum
and the misc test where the select unique1 from onek2 outputs
the two rows in different order.

no longer returns buffer pointer, can be gotten from scan;
descriptor; bootstrap can create multi-key indexes;
pg_procname index now is multi-key index; oidint2, oidint4, oidname
are gone (must be removed from regression tests); use System Cache
rather than sequential scan in many places; heap_modifytuple no
longer takes buffer parameter; remove unused buffer parameter in
a few other functions; oid8 is not index-able; remove some use of
single-character variable names; cleanup Buffer variables usage
and scan descriptor looping; cleaned up allocation and freeing of
tuples; 18k lines of diff;
As Bruce mentioned, this is due to the conflict among changes we made.
Included patches should fix the problem(I changed all MB to
MULTIBYTE). Please let me know if you have further problem.
P.S. I did not include pathces to configure and gram.c to save the
file size(configure.in and gram.y modified).

Attached are patches to enhance the multi-byte support. (patches are
against 7/18 snapshot)
* determine encoding at initdb/createdb rather than compile time
Now initdb/createdb has an option to specify the encoding. Also, I
modified the syntax of CREATE DATABASE to accept encoding option. See
README.mb for more details.
For this purpose I have added new column "encoding" to pg_database.
Also pg_attribute and pg_class are changed to catch up the
modification to pg_database. Actually I haved added pg_database_mb.h,
pg_attribute_mb.h and pg_class_mb.h. These are used only when MB is
enabled. The reason having separate files is I couldn't find a way to
use ifdef or whatever in those files. I have to admit it looks
ugly. No way.
* support for PGCLIENTENCODING when issuing COPY command
commands/copy.c modified.
* support for SQL92 syntax "SET NAMES"
See gram.y.
* support for LATIN2-5
* add UNICODE regression test case
* new test suite for MB
New directory test/mb added.
* clean up source files
Basic idea is to have MB's own subdirectory for easier maintenance.
These are include/mb and backend/utils/mb.
1. Removes the unnecessary "#define AbcRegProcedure 123"'s from
pg_proc.h.
2. Changes those #defines to use the names already defined in
fmgr.h.
3. Forces the make of fmgr.h in backend/Makefile instead of having
it
made as a dependency in access/common/Makefile *hack*hack*hack*
4. Rearranged the #includes to a less helter-skelter arrangement,
also
changing <file.h> to "file.h" to signify a non-system header.
5. Removed "pg_proc.h" from files where its only purpose was for
the
#defines removed in item #1.
6. Added "fmgr.h" to each file changed for completeness sake.
Turns out that #6 was not necessary for some files because fmgr.h
was being included in a roundabout way SIX levels deep by the first
include.
"access/genam.h"
->"access/relscan.h"
->"utils/rel.h"
->"access/strat.h"
->"access/skey.h"
->"fmgr.h"
So adding fmgr.h really didn't add anything to the compile, hopefully
just made it clearer to the programmer.

Patch by: wieck@sapserv.debis.de (Jan Wieck)
One of the design rules of PostgreSQL is extensibility. And
to follow this rule means (at least for me) that there should
not only be a builtin PL. Instead I would prefer a defined
interface for PL implemetations.
Makefile.global.
End result, if all goes well, should allow for much easier porting, since
there will no longer be a concept of a "port". Most, if not everything,
*should* be determined by configure, or by the compiler itself. Still
work to be done though :)
async.c: #include <port-protos.h> surrounded by an #ifdef HAVE_STRDUP
vacuum.c: #include <port-protos.h> commented out...can someone comment as
to why it was included, as it doesn't seem to have any effect
under FreeBSD so far...would like some sort of #ifdef wrapper
like async.c if possible
start time equal to tuple->t_tmax.
Privent shrinking if there are tuples modifyed by running transactions
(it concerns system relations only, currently).
table. The table name is de-allocated by the CommitTransactionCommand()
in vc_init() before it is copied in VacRel.data and sometimes this causes
a SIGSEGV. My patch simply moves the strcpy before vc_init.
Submitted by Massimo Dal Zotto <dz@cs.unitn.it>.
2. Reap unused tuples too
3. Reap empty pages
4. Check if a page is initialized, initialize it if not
and reap it
5. Binary search in list of reapped pages/tids to check
is the heap' tid pointed by a index' tuple on this list
(it's mu-u-uch faster)
