Apart from this Makefile hack, all I've done is to make dynamically
loaded code modules fail properly (as was already done for __mips__,
although I think this is too loose: I believe NetBSD for the pmax can
do dynamic linking), and to add test-and-set lock handling. As Bruce
suggested, this is done in a maximally efficient inlined way: I was
not aware that this code was so important, speed-wise.

Remove -m486 option, since it is platform specific...this should technically
be removed everywhere, but so far linux-elf is the only platform that is
being reported a problem with...

Old planner() becomes union_planner(); new planner() makes initialization
of some global variables to support subselects and calls union_planner().
Calls to SS_replace_correlation_vars() and SS_process_sublinks() in
query_planner() before planning.
Get rid of #ifdef INDEXSCAN_PATCH in createplan.c.

Fixed ExecReScan for nodeMaterial.

Get rid of ExecMarkPos and ExecRestrPos in nodeNestloop.

A few minutes ago I sent down the PL/Tcl directory to this
list. Look at it and reuse anything that might help to build
PL/perl. I really hope that PL/perl and PL/Tcl appear in the
6.3 distribution. I'll do whatever I can to make this happen.

Remove some definitions which could not work; conversions from datetime
to integer unix system time conflict on the input types.
Leave in the conversions from integer unix system time to datetime.
Define ROW and STATEMENT as parser tokens.
Use explicit tokens to decode CREATE TRIGGER clauses.
Allow ROW and STATEMENT as column identifiers.
Fix CAST syntax to require parens per SQL92 spec.
Define TypeId to allow correct translation of type names in CREATE FUNCTION
and other statements. Need to do this without looking up defined type
names because CREATE FUNCTION can specify undefined (new) types.
Define UserId to complete removal of "Id" generic entity.
Define xlateSqlFunc() to convert SQL92 CHARACTER_LENGTH() and CHAR_LENGTH()
functions to calls to length().
Define func_name parser entity for contexts requiring a function name.
Have xlateSqlType() translate "float" to "float8".
* Fixes minor bug found in DatabaseMetaData.getTables() where it doesn't
handle default table types.
* It now reports an error if the client opens a database using
properties, and either the user or password properties are missing. This
should make the recent problem with Servlets easier to find.
* Commented out obsolete property in Driver.getPropertyInfo()
Well this is not really a patch. But I mananged to get Linus' old Postgres95
precompiler to compile and work with PostgreSQL. The next step would be to
collect bug/missing feature reports and to put it into the distribution so
that it is made with the standard make procedure.
Warning! So far it is not tested much and it does not install correctly. But
I was able to create a small binary with it.
Symptom:
select from a table with attrs (a int, b char(20))
crashed in bpcharout() (palloc of -1 bytes). But a table
with attrs (a int, b varchar(20)) worked.
Allow most expressions in BETWEEN clause. Allow all expressions if
surrounded by parentheses (but not all are meaningful).
Remove unused keywords ACL, APPEND, MERGE.
Requires a "make clean" to recompile all code since keyword numeric
assignments have changed with keyword removal.
Define boolean functions and operators for lseg <, <=, <>, >=, >.
Define functions and operators for closest point to lseg on box,
to line on lseg, to lseg on lseg.
Define function and operator for length of lseg.
Change length operator from '??' to '@-@'
(currently defined for path and lseg).
Define boolean functions for lseg <, <=, <>, >=, >
Define close_ls(), close_lseg(), lseg_length().
Write real code for close_sb(), close_pb(), inter_sb(), inter_lb().
Repair lseg_perp() which determines if two lsegs are perpendicular.
Repair lseg_dt() distance between two lsegs.
Note: close_sl() is clearly broken but will repair later
(calculating point on lseg rather than point on line).
Clean up the alpha port, remove the backend/port/alpha subdirectory
structure, and move the init_address_fixup() code directly into
backend/main/main.c with appropriate #ifdefs around it...
[This is a repost - it supercedes the previous one. It fixes the patch so
it doesn't bread aix port, plus there's a file missing out of the
original post because difforig doesn't pick up new files. It's now

This patch brings the JDBC driver up to the current protocol spec.
Basically, the backend now tells the driver what authentication scheme to
use.
The patch also fixes a performance problem with large objects. In the
buffer manager, each fastpath call was sending multiple Notifications to
the backend (sometimes more data in the form of notifications were being
sent than blob data!).
