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
postmaster switch in many scenarios.

Make btree index creation and initial validation of foreign-key constraints
use maintenance_work_mem rather than work_mem as their memory limit.
Add some code to guc.c to allow these variables to be referenced by their
old names in SHOW and SET commands, for backwards compatibility.
source the \copy came from. Also, fix prompting logic so that initial
and per-line prompts appear for all cases of reading from an interactive
terminal. Patch by Mark Feit, with some kibitzing by Tom Lane.
characters, as for fancy colorized prompts. This was nearly a direct
lift from bash-2.05b's lib/readline/display.c, per guidance from Chet Ramey.

intended to allow application authors to insulate themselves from
changes to the default value of 'default_with_oids' in future releases
of PostgreSQL.
This patch also fixes a bug in the earlier implementation of the
'default_with_oids' GUC variable: code in gram.y should not examine
the value of GUC variables directly due to synchronization issues.
pg_depend to determine a safe dump order. Defaults and check constraints
can be emitted either as part of a table or domain definition, or
separately if that's needed to break a dependency loop. Lots of old
half-baked code for controlling dump order removed.
proposal for eventually deprecating OIDs on user tables that I posted
earlier to pgsql-hackers. pg_dump now always specifies WITH OIDS or
WITHOUT OIDS when dumping a table. The documentation has been updated.

large objects. Dump all these in pg_dump; also add code to pg_dump
user-defined conversions. Make psql's large object code rely on
the backend for inserting/deleting LOB comments, instead of trying to
hack pg_description directly. Documentation and regression tests added.
