Tom Lane e0375d77b6 Make sure ALTER TABLE preserves index tablespaces.
When rebuilding an existing index, ALTER TABLE correctly kept the
physical file in the same tablespace, but it messed up the pg_class
entry if the index had been in the database's default tablespace
and "default_tablespace" was set to some non-default tablespace.
This led to an inaccessible index.

Fix by fixing pg_get_indexdef_string() to always include a tablespace
clause, whether or not the index is in the default tablespace.  The
previous behavior was installed in commit 537e92e41, and I think it just
wasn't thought through very clearly; certainly the possible effect of
default_tablespace wasn't considered.  There's some risk in changing the
behavior of this function, but there are no other call sites in the core
code.  Even if it's being used by some third party extension, it's fairly
hard to envision a usage that is okay with a tablespace clause being
appended some of the time but can't handle it being appended all the time.

Back-patch to all supported versions.

Code fix by me, investigation and test cases by Michael Paquier.

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
