Tom Lane fe24d78161 Improve plpgsql's error reporting for no-such-column cases.
Given a column reference foo.bar, where there is a composite plpgsql
variable foo but it doesn't contain a column bar, the pre-9.0 coding would
immediately throw a "record foo has no field bar" error.  In 9.0 the parser
hook instead falls through to let the core parser see if it can resolve the
reference.  If not, you get a complaint about "missing FROM-clause entry
for table foo", which while in some sense correct isn't terribly helpful.
Complicate things a bit so that we can throw the old error message if
neither the core parser nor the hook are able to resolve the column
reference, while not changing the behavior in any other case.
Per bug #5757 from Andrey Galkin.

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/.
