Tom Lane f786e91a75 Improve underdocumented btree_xlog_delete_get_latestRemovedXid() code. 
As noted by Noah Misch, btree_xlog_delete_get_latestRemovedXid is
critically dependent on the assumption that it's examining a consistent
state of the database.  This was undocumented though, so the
seemingly-unrelated check for no active HS sessions might be thought to be
merely an optional optimization.  Improve comments, and add an explicit
check of reachedConsistency just to be sure.

This function returns InvalidTransactionId (thereby killing all HS
transactions) in several cases that are not nearly unlikely enough for my
taste.  This commit doesn't attempt to fix those deficiencies, just
document them.

Back-patch to 9.2, not from any real functional need but just to keep the
branches more closely synced to simplify possible future back-patching.

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/.
