Tom Lane fb1227af67 Fix regrole and regnamespace types to honor quoting like other reg* types.
Aside from any consistency arguments, this is logically necessary because
the I/O functions for these types also handle numeric OID values.  Without
a quoting rule it is impossible to distinguish numeric OIDs from role or
namespace names that happen to contain only digits.

Also change the to_regrole and to_regnamespace functions to dequote their
arguments.  While not logically essential, this seems like a good idea
since the other to_reg* functions do it.  Anyone who really wants raw
lookup of an uninterpreted name can fall back on the time-honored solution
of (SELECT oid FROM pg_namespace WHERE nspname = whatever).

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
http://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
