Add Taral's test for flags required by the detected cpp program to read
from stdin. Necessary at least for systems missing cpp but having gcc -E.
Include new configured file backend/catalog/genbki.sh.
Allow TIMESTAMP as a column name or general identifier.
timestamp had become a token a while ago, but had been omitted from the
keywords.c until recently. This uncovered the omission in the ColId decl.

Here are patches needed to complie under AIX 4.2.
I changed configure.in, pqcomm.c, config.h.in, and fe-connect.c.
Also I had to install flex because lex did not want to translate pgc.l.

This is plain wrong, but check to see if DataDir was set *before* running
read_pg_options ... read_pg_options should probably be moved to after the
getopt() instead?

change configure so that if postgresql isn't being installed as root,
do not configure in the perl5 interface.
the perl5 interface needs to be installed under /usr/local/lib/perl5/*, which
is generally owned by root. This allows a non-root build/install with the
only root requirement being the make/install of hte perl5 stuff...

Remove the -soname ${SHLIB} from solaris_{sparc,x86} as they conflict
with the -o $@ used in the ${SHLIB} directive, causing a failure for
*at least* gcc2.8.1 + Solaris 2.6 under both hardware platforms...

This patch updates the ImageViewer example to use Multiple Threading.
When importing an image into the database, the example now fires off a
new
Thread, which imports the image in the background. This also means that
the application doesn't freeze on the user, and they can still browse
the
images in the database, while the upload is running.
This now makes the ImageViewer a true example on how to use Threads (the
threadtest class is just that - a test).
Clean up markup.
Add new bibliographic references from Paul Aoki.
Include libpq++ docs from the old man page in the Programmer's Guide.
Update Unix installation info for ODBC.

I have had a few problems with the PL stuff recently committed. The
following patches fix the problems (i.e., all regression tests pass)

Do not enable TCL_ARRAYS feature by default, because it
is wrong and dangerous unless you are using contrib/string. We really
need a thorough look at the issue of making the backend and the FE/BE
protocols completely 8-bit-clean for string data, but that's a task
for some future release.

I'm too short of time to make these man pages look like the
newly-updated SGML reference pages, so I just inserted a comment that they
are obsolete. If you want to transcribe the newer info into these pages,
be my guest.

Just a quick patch. This makes the JDBC driver thread safe, which is an
important step towards making the driver compliant, and means that for
some Java applications and servlets, only a single database connection
is
needed, so in a sence this is a nice little show stopper for 6.4 (and
should still be backward compatible to 6.3.2).

I agree. I think, though, that the best argument presented in the
debate was from Paul Vixie, who wanted INET to be the name covering
both IPV4 and IPV6. The following kit makes the needed changes:

Hello!
Here are two new patches for the Win32 support.
1) The patch based on the one from Hiroshi Inoue [Inoue@tpf.co.jp], to
load
Winsock.dll from libpq.dll.
2) A patch for psql.c to remove the call to WSAStartup(), since it is
not
required when it's done in libpq.dll.
I'm still looking for the possibility of having a crypt() function in
libpq.dll too, the same way getopt was included. Any chance of getting
this
before 6.4, or should we wait for the next one?
Clean up for configuration from the Postgres main configure script.
Use @top-srcdir@ to find the right Makefile.global and use ODBCSRCDIR
to point to this local directory.
Move non-platform-specific stuff to outside the if clauses.
Still need to move all platform-specific stuff to the templates.
Separate out the lextest so that it is run by "make" and "make install".
Before, "make install" did not run the lextest.
Fix up the ODBC make from this main configure.
Include configure test for "ln -s" in Makefile.global.in.
Was always in configure, just not carried through to here for use.

Took it on myself to change libpq's sharedlib version number from
1.1 to 2.0 for this release. The other frontend shlibs need version
number bumps too, but I think a minor version number change will do for them.
