The attached patch implements some changes that were discussed a
couple weeks ago on the hackers and interfaces lists:
1. When the backend sends a NOTICE message and closes the connection
(typically, because it was told to by the postmaster after
another backend coredumped), libpq will now print the notice
and close the connection cleanly. Formerly, the frontend app
would usually terminate ungracefully due to a SIGPIPE. (I am
not sure if 6.3.2 behaved that way, but the current cvs sources
do...)
2. libpq's various printouts to stderr are now fed through a single
"notice processor" routine, which can be overridden by the
application to direct notices someplace else. This should ease
porting libpq to Windows.
I also noticed and fixed a problem in PQprint: when sending output
to a pager subprocess, it would disable SIGPIPE in case the pager
terminates early (this is good) --- but afterwards it reset SIGPIPE
to SIG_DFL, rather than restoring the application's prior setting
(bad).

I have attached a patch to allow GROUP BY and/or ORDER BY function or
expressions. Note worthy items:
1. The expression or function need not be in the target list.
Example:
SELECT name FROM foo GROUP BY lower(name);
2. Simplified the grammar to use expressions only.
3. Cleaned up earlier patch in this area to make use of existing
utility functions.
3. Reduced some of the members in the SortGroupBy parse node. The
original data members were redundant with the new expression node.
(MUST do a "make clean" now)
4. Added a new parse node "JoinUsing". The JOIN USING clause was
overloading this SortGroupBy structure. With the afore mentioned
reduction of members, the two clauses lost all their commonality.
5. A bug still exist where, if a function or expression is GROUPed BY,
and an aggregate function does not include a attribute from the
expression or function, the backend crashes. (or something like
that) The bug pre-dates this patch. Example:
SELECT lower(a) AS lowcase, count(b) FROM foo GROUP BY lowcase;
*** BOOM ***
--Also when not in target list
SELECT count(b) FROM foo GROUP BY lower(a);
*** BOOM AGAIN ***
