Tom Lane 52f0fc703f GIN's ItemPointerIsMin, ItemPointerIsMax, and ItemPointerIsLossyPage macros
should use GinItemPointerGetBlockNumber/GinItemPointerGetOffsetNumber,
not ItemPointerGetBlockNumber/ItemPointerGetOffsetNumber, because the latter
will Assert() on ip_posid == 0, ie a "Min" pointer.  (Thus, ItemPointerIsMin
has never worked at all, but it seems unused at present.)  I'm not certain
that the case can occur in normal functioning, but it's blowing up on me
while investigating Tatsuo-san's data corruption problem.  In any case it
seems like a problem waiting to bite someone.

Back-patch just in case this really is a problem for somebody in the field.

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.  Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the
file HISTORY.  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/.
