Tom Lane 83604cc423 Repair unsafe use of shared typecast-lookup table in plpgsql DO blocks.
DO blocks use private simple_eval_estates to avoid intra-transaction memory
leakage, cf commit c7b849a89.  I had forgotten about that while writing
commit 0fc94a5ba, but it means that expression execution trees created
within a DO block disappear immediately on exiting the DO block, and hence
can't safely be linked into plpgsql's session-wide cast hash table.
To fix, give a DO block a private cast hash table to go with its private
simple_eval_estate.  This is less efficient than one could wish, since
DO blocks can no longer share any cast lookup work with other plpgsql
execution, but it shouldn't be too bad; in any case it's no worse than
what happened in DO blocks before commit 0fc94a5ba.

Per bug #13571 from Feike Steenbergen.  Preliminary analysis by
Oleksandr Shulgin.

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/.
