Tom Lane 875353b99f Fix assorted core dumps and Assert failures that could occur during
AbortTransaction or AbortSubTransaction, when trying to clean up after an
error that prevented (sub)transaction start from completing:
* access to TopTransactionResourceOwner that might not exist
* assert failure in AtEOXact_GUC, if AtStart_GUC not called yet
* assert failure or core dump in AfterTriggerEndSubXact, if
  AfterTriggerBeginSubXact not called yet

Per testing by injecting elog(ERROR) at successive steps in StartTransaction
and StartSubTransaction.  It's not clear whether all of these cases could
really occur in the field, but at least one of them is easily exposed by
simple stress testing, as per my accidental discovery yesterday.

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/.
