int8, int16, int32, int64 and separately uint8, uint16, uint32, uint64
The previous patch grouped:
int8, int16 and int32
uint8, uint16 and uint32
int64 and uint64 <-- this grouping is wrong on AIX 4.3.3 and below
If you prefer to make 4 groups out of this you could apply this patch.

Enabling this feature adds very light overhead of 1 select from pg_class on
first using of pl/tcl in backend if unknown suppport is really unused.
But pl/tcl with this support has very improved functionality.
Patch includes changes to documentation.

an already installed iODBC or unixODBC driver manager. In particular,
use the include files provided by the driver manager over our own,
and use the odbcinst library of the driver manager rather than gpps.c.
Migrate portability sections common to several files into psqlodbc.h.
for them, and making them just wastes time during backend startup/shutdown.
Also, remove compile-time MAXBACKENDS limit per long-ago proposal.
You can now set MaxBackends as high as your kernel can stand without
any reconfiguration/recompilation.

See attached revised patch. (I'm sure the configure.in stuff can be done
right/better, I'm just not enough of a autoconf guru to know what to
change it to.)

Now with documentation update and disabling of UTF conversion for Tcl <=8.0
