1. Make 'all' works without complaint. Don't have to add the .exp
files to the files list. They are made automagically when
making the respective shared lib file.
Only port that actually uses EXPSUFF (from makefiles/Makefile.*)
is Aix, so if this breaks anybody else, let me know, asap.
2. Make 'clean' actually cleans up correctly. Previously, it would
leave the .o files in C-code directory.
3. Changed references to reflect new location of .c files.
4. Added DELETE statements to complex.source so that it tidies up
when done. Previously, it would leave things in pg_amop,
pg_amproc and pg_opclass. Only possible to do this with the
new SUBSELECT code in 6.3. Nice work, fellas...
Not deleting the index entries would cause a non-fatal error if
complex.sql was run again on the same database. Much tidier now.
5. Corrected the README. obj directory hasn't existed since Bryan
redid the make way back when. Also changed the snipet from psql
to match the current version. POSTGRES95?!? I don't think so. :)
The following patches will allow postgreSQL 6.3 to compile and run on a
UNIXWARE 2.1.2 system with the native C compiler with the following library
change:
The alloca function must be copied from the libucb.a archive and added
to the libgen.a archive.
Also, the GNU flex program is needed to successfully build postgreSQL.

Seem to remember someone posting to one of the lists a while back
that the tutorial code wouldn't compile and/or run. Found four
problems with it that will let it run.
1. Tutorial makefile had a recursive use of DLOBJS.
2. Some tutorial needed semi-colons added to many statements.
3. Complex tutorial didn't clean up after itself.
4. Advanced had a time-travel example. Commented it out and
put a line pointing the user to contrib/spi/README.

I thought it would be a good idea to ensure that the new view
permission model will not get broken by subsequent
fixes/changes. So I wrote a little regression test for it.
There is an ugly thing in this regression test. It creates
temporary a test user that is required for the tests. The
user is removed at the end of the test, but if sometimes the
regression suite is aborted or crashes exactly here, the test
user will lay around in the pg_shadow. Don't have a clue how
to get around.

execScan.c: in the end of scan projInfo->pi_slot must be
return, not a slot returned from access method (they have
different TupleDesc and MergeJoin node was broken).
nodeIndexscan.c: index_markpos()/index_restrpos() call index-specific
mark/restr funcs and are in use now (instead of
IndexScanMarkPosition()/ExecIndexRestrPos()).

seems that my last post didn't make it through. That's good
since the diff itself didn't covered the renaming of
pg_user.h to pg_shadow.h and it's new content.
Here it's again. The complete regression test passwd with
only some float diffs. createuser and destroyuser work.
pg_shadow cannot be read by ordinary user.

What it does:
It solves stupid problem with cyrillic charsets IP-based on-fly recoding.
take a look at /data/charset.conf for details.
You can use any tables for any charset.
Tables are from Russian Apache project.
Tables in this patch contains also Ukrainian characters.

Ok. I have decided to use:
#if defined(sun) && if defined(sparc) && !defined(__svr4)
instead of defined(sunos4). interfaces/libpq/libpq-fe.h and
include/c.h have been modified(see included patches).
Another porblems I have found are:
o SunOS lacks strtoul(). to fix this I stole strtoul.c from FreeBSD
and place it under backend/port. necessary modifications have been
also made to backend/port/Makefile.in, include/config.h.in and
configure.in (see included patches).

The diff looks so simple and easy. But to find it wasn't fun.
It must have been there for a long time. What happened:
When a tuple in one of some central catalogs was updated, the
referenced relation got flushed, so it would be reopened on
the next access (to reflect new triggers, rules and table
structure changes into the relation cache).
Some data (the tupleDescriptor e.g.) is used in the system
cache too. So when a relation is subject to the system cache,
this must know too that a cached system relation got flushed
because the tupleDesc data gets freed during the flush!
For the GRANT/REVOKE on pg_class it was slightly different.
There is some local data in inval.c that gets initialized on
the first invalidation of a tuple in some central catalogs.
This needs a SysCache lookup in pg_class. But when the first
of all commands is a GRANT on pg_class, exactly the needed
tuple is the one actually invalidated. So I added little code
snippets that the initialization of the local variables in
inval.c will already happen during InitPostgres().
