In the meaning of bug-fix, the patch is not needed. Because you
have already modified "next_insert()" in 7.0-ecpglib. However
in the meaning of speed-up, the patch will be needed.

Fix nasty TRUNCATE bug reported by Darrin Ladd. RelationTruncateIndexes
would close and then re-open rel being truncated. Depending on the
luck of the draw, the re-opened relcache entry might or might not be
at the same physical location as before. Unfortunately, if it wasn't
then heap_truncate would crash and burn, because it still had a pointer
at the old location. Fix is to open and then close rel in
RelationTruncateIndexes, so that rel's refcount never goes to zero
until heap_truncate is done.

Support for DESTDIR make variable. This is used as in `make install
DESTDIR=/else/where' and prepends the value of DESTDIR to the full
installation paths (e.g., /else/where/usr/local/pgsql/bin). This allows
users to install the package into a location different from the one that
was configured and hard-coded into various scripts, e.g., for creating
binary packages.
DESTDIR is in many cases preferrable over `make install
prefix=/else/where' because
a) `prefix' affects the path that is hard-coded into the files, which can
lead to a `make install prefix=xxx' (as done by the regression test
driver) corrupting the files in the source tree with wrong paths.
b) it doesn't work at all if a directory was overridden to not depend on
`prefix', e.g., --sysconfdir=/etc.
(Updating the regression test driver to use DESTDIR is a separate
undertaking.)

This patch implements a different "relkind"
for views. Views are now have a "relkind" of
RELKIND_VIEW instead of RELKIND_RELATION.
Also, views no longer have actual heap storage
files.
The following changes were made
1. CREATE VIEW sets the new relkind
2. The executor complains if a DELETE or
INSERT references a view.
3. DROP RULE complains if an attempt is made
to delete a view SELECT rule.
4. CREATE RULE "_RETmytable" AS ON SELECT TO mytable DO INSTEAD ...
1. checks to make sure mytable is empty.
2. sets the relkind to RELKIND_VIEW.
3. deletes the heap storage files.
5. LOCK myview is not allowed. :)
6. the regression test type_sanity was changed to
account for the new relkind value.
7. CREATE INDEX ON myview ... is not allowed.
8. VACUUM myview is not allowed.
VACUUM automatically skips views when do the entire
database.
9. TRUNCATE myview is not allowed.
THINGS LEFT TO THINK ABOUT
o pg_views
o pg_dump
o pgsql (\d \dv)
o Do we really want to be able to inherit from views?
