Teach canonicalize_path() how to strip all unnecessary uses of "." and "..", replacing the previous ad-hoc code that got rid of only some such cases. In particular, we can always remove all such uses from absolute paths. The proximate reason to do this is that Windows rejects paths involving ".." in some cases (in particular, you can't put one in a symlink), so we ought to be sure we don't use ".." unnecessarily. Moreover, it seems like good cleanup on general principles. There is other path-munging code that could be simplified now, but we'll leave that for followup work. It is tempting to call this a bug fix and back-patch it. On the other hand, the misbehavior can only be reached if a highly privileged user does something dubious, so it's not unreasonable to say "so don't do that". And this patch could result in unexpected behavioral changes, in case anybody was expecting uses of ".." to stay put. So at least for now, just put it in HEAD.

The PostgreSQL contrib tree --------------------------- This subtree contains porting tools, analysis utilities, and plug-in features that are not part of the core PostgreSQL system, mainly because they address a limited audience or are too experimental to be part of the main source tree. This does not preclude their usefulness. User documentation for each module appears in the main SGML documentation. When building from the source distribution, these modules are not built automatically, unless you build the "world" target. You can also build and install them all by running "make all" and "make install" in this directory; or to build and install just one selected module, do the same in that module's subdirectory. Some directories supply new user-defined functions, operators, or types. To make use of one of these modules, after you have installed the code you need to register the new SQL objects in the database system by executing a CREATE EXTENSION command. In a fresh database, you can simply do CREATE EXTENSION module_name; See the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this procedure.
