Memoize would always use the hash equality operator for the cache key types to determine if the current set of parameters were the same as some previously cached set. Certain types such as floating points where -0.0 and +0.0 differ in their binary representation but are classed as equal by the hash equality operator may cause problems as unless the join uses the same operator it's possible that whichever join operator is being used would be able to distinguish the two values. In which case we may accidentally return in the incorrect rows out of the cache. To fix this here we add a binary mode to Memoize to allow it to the current set of parameters to previously cached values by comparing bit-by-bit rather than logically using the hash equality operator. This binary mode is always used for LATERAL joins and it's used for normal joins when any of the join operators are not hashable.

# Generating dummy probes If Postgres isn't configured with dtrace enabled, we need to generate dummy probes for the entries in probes.d, that do nothing. This is accomplished in Unix via the sed script `Gen_dummy_probes.sed`. We used to use this in MSVC builds using the perl utility `psed`, which mimicked sed. However, that utility disappeared from Windows perl distributions and so we converted the sed script to a perl script to be used in MSVC builds. We still keep the sed script as the authoritative source for generating these dummy probes because except on Windows perl is not a hard requirement when building from a tarball. So, if you need to change the way dummy probes are generated, first change the sed script, and when it's working generate the perl script. This can be accomplished by using the perl utility s2p. s2p is no longer part of the perl core, so it might not be on your system, but it is available on CPAN and also in many package systems. e.g. on Fedora it can be installed using `cpan App::s2p` or `dnf install perl-App-s2p`. The Makefile contains a recipe for regenerating Gen_dummy_probes.pl, so all you need to do is once you have s2p installed is `make Gen_dummy_probes.pl` Note that in a VPATH build this will generate the file in the vpath tree, not the source tree.
