Tom Lane 32470825d3 Avoid passing function pointers across process boundaries. 
We'd already recognized that we can't pass function pointers across process
boundaries for functions in loadable modules, since a shared library could
get loaded at different addresses in different processes.  But actually the
practice doesn't work for functions in the core backend either, if we're
using EXEC_BACKEND.  This is the cause of recent failures on buildfarm
member culicidae.  Switch to passing a string function name in all cases.

Something like this needs to be back-patched into 9.6, but let's see
if the buildfarm likes it first.

Petr Jelinek, with a bunch of basically-cosmetic adjustments by me

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	http://www.postgresql.org/download

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
http://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
