Tom Lane 9d91cd865b Fix latent crash in do_text_output_multiline().
do_text_output_multiline() would fail (typically with a null pointer
dereference crash) if its input string did not end with a newline.  Such
cases do not arise in our current sources; but it certainly could happen
in future, or in extension code's usage of the function, so we should fix
it.  To fix, replace "eol += len" with "eol = text + len".

While at it, make two cosmetic improvements: mark the input string const,
and rename the argument from "text" to "txt" to dodge pgindent strangeness
(since "text" is a typedef name).

Even though this problem is only latent at present, it seems like a good
idea to back-patch the fix, since it's a very simple/safe patch and it's
not out of the realm of possibility that we might in future back-patch
something that expects sane behavior from do_text_output_multiline().

Per report from Hao Lee.

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
