Neil Conway fc7fd50182 Add ceiling() as an alias for ceil(), and power() as an alias for pow(). 
Regression tests and documentation have both been updated.

SQL2003 requires that both ceiling() and ceil() be present, so I have
documented both spellings. SQL2003 doesn't mention pow() as far as I
can see, so I decided to replace pow() with power() in the documentation:
there is little reason to encourage the continued usage of a function
that isn't compliant with the standard, given a standard-compliant
alternative.

RELEASE NOTES: should state that pow() is considered deprecated
(although I don't see the need to ever remove it.)

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 several language
bindings, including C and Tcl.

The JDBC, ODBC, C++, and Python interfaces have been moved to the PostgreSQL
Projects Web Site at http://gborg.postgresql.org for separate maintenance.
A Perl DBI/DBD driver is available from CPAN.

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