Thank you very much, you catch it :). This bug had a long life, because it
exists if and only if locale of postmaster
was a different from C (or ru_RU.KOI8-R).
Please, apply patch for current CVS & 7.3.1

We have just finished porting the old KAME IPv6 patch over to
postgresql version 7.3, but yea... this patch adds full IPv6
support to postgres. I've tested it out on 7.2.3 and has
been running perfectly stable.

Some time ago John Gray <jgray@azuli.co.uk> and myself worked out and
tested a patch to contrib/xml where the existing code was causing
postgres to crash when it encountered & entities in the XML. I've

PyGreSQL inserttable patch
=====================
I suggested an improvement of the inserttable in the PyGreSQL interface
already in January, but seemingly it was never implemented. I was told this
is the right place to get patches in for PyGreSQL, so I'm reposting my patch
here.
I consider the inserttable methode essential in populating the database
because of its benefits in performance compared to insert, so I think this
patch is quite essential. The attachment is an improved version of the
corresponding pg_inserttable function in pgmodule.c, which fixes the
following problems:
* The function raised exceptions because PyList_GetItem was used beyond the
size of the list. This was checked by comparing the result with NULL, but
the exception was not cleaned up, which could result in mysterious errors in
the following Python code. Instead of clearing the exception using
PyErr_Clear or something like that, I avoided throwing the exception at all
by at first requesting the size of the list. Using this opportunity, I also
checked the uniformity of the size of the rows passed in the lists/tuples.
The function also accepts (and silently ignores) empty lists and sublists.
* Python "None" values are now accepted and properly converted to PostgreSQL
NULL values
* The function now generates an error message in case of a line buffer
overflow
* It copes with tabulators, newlines and backslashes in strings now
* Rewrote the buffer filling code which should now run faster by avoiding
unnecessary string copy operations forth and back

As far as I figured from the source code this function only deals with
cleaning up locale names and nothing else. Since all the locale names
are in plain ASCII I think it will be safe to use ASCII-only lower-case
conversion.

Avoid pulling up sublinks from a subselect's targetlist. Works around
problems that occur if sublink is referenced via a join alias variable.
Perhaps this can be improved later, but a simple and safe fix is needed

Phase 1 of read-only-plans project: cause executor state nodes to point
to plan nodes, not vice-versa. All executor state nodes now inherit from
struct PlanState. Copying of plan trees has been simplified by not
storing a list of SubPlans in Plan nodes (eliminating duplicate links).
The executor still needs such a list, but it can build it during
ExecutorStart since it has to scan the plan tree anyway.
No initdb forced since no stored-on-disk structures changed, but you
will need a full recompile because of node-numbering changes.

Teach planner to expand sufficiently simple SQL-language functions
('SELECT expression') inline, like macros, during the constant-folding
phase of planning. The actual expansion is not difficult, but checking
that we're not changing the semantics of the call turns out to be more
subtle than one might think; in particular must pay attention to
permissions issues, strictness, and volatility.

Run COPY OUT in a temporary memory context that's reset once per row,

datatype output routines leak memory or choose to return a constant string.

Upgrade planner and executor to allow multiple hash keys for a hash join,

to consider for a given pair of relations) as well as allow more effective

Tighten selection of equality and ordering operators for grouping

marked hashable.

Use Params, rather than run-time-modified Const nodes, to handle

Restructure outfuncs and readfuncs to use macros in the same style as
just done for copyfuncs/equalfuncs. Read functions in particular get
a lot shorter than before, and it's much easier to compare an out function
with the corresponding read function to make sure they agree.
initdb forced due to small changes in nodestring format (regularizing
a few cases that were formerly idiosyncratic).

Restructure the code in copyfuncs and equalfuncs to put much heavier
reliance on macros, in hopes of eliminating silly typos (like copying
to the wrong field) and just generally making it easier to see the forest
instead of the trees. As an example, here is the new code for A_Indices:
I'm sending you a small patch to pgdb.py module. This
raises pgdb.DatabaseError when any of the fetch*
methods was invoked but previous call to execute* did
not produce any result set or no call was issued yet.
Also, raises pgdb.NotSupportedError when .nextset() is
invoked, instead of NameError.
Change the pkey method so that the caller can optionally set the dictionary
used for the primary key lookup. This will prevent a database lookup
for each connection object that gets created. This could be a significant
optimization on a busy system.
Similarly, the get_attnames method allows for the attributes dictionary
to be installed directly.
Change the debug variable to allow better control by the caller over how
debug output is managed. The user can continue to use the current method
of passing a formatting string to have a replacement done and output will
be sent to the standard output exactly as it did before. In addition they
can set it to a file object, sys.stderr for example, and the query string
will be printed to it. Thay can also set it to a method (function) and the
query string will be passed to that method giving them the maximum flexibility
to do whatever they want with the query string.
I will be working with the PyGreSQL documentation shortly and at that time
will properly document this feature.

Restructure planning of nestloop inner indexscans so that the set of usable
joinclauses is determined accurately for each join. Formerly, the code only
considered joinclauses that used all of the rels from the outer side of the
join; thus for example
FROM (a CROSS JOIN b) JOIN c ON (c.f1 = a.x AND c.f2 = b.y)
could not exploit a two-column index on c(f1,f2), since neither of the
qual clauses would be in the joininfo list it looked in. The new code does
this correctly, and also is able to eliminate redundant clauses, thus fixing
the problem noted 24-Oct-02 by Hans-Jürgen Schönig.

This patch implements FOR EACH STATEMENT triggers, per my email to

Notes/caveats:
- added regression tests for the new functionality, all
regression tests pass on my machine
- added pg_dump support
- updated PL/PgSQL to support per-statement triggers; didn't
look at the other procedural languages.
- there's (even) more code duplication in trigger.c than there
was previously. Any suggestions on how to refactor the
ExecXXXTriggers() functions to reuse more code would be
welcome -- I took a brief look at it, but couldn't see an
easy way to do it (there are several subtly-different
versions of the code in question)
- updated the documentation. I also took the liberty of
removing a big chunk of duplicated syntax documentation in
the Programmer's Guide on triggers, and moving that
information to the CREATE TRIGGER reference page.
- I also included some spelling fixes and similar small
cleanups I noticed while making the changes. If you'd like
me to split those into a separate patch, let me know.
