may or may not be harmless.  Report from Stefan, patch from Heikki.

define pg_dlsym() as returning a PGFunction pointer, not just any
pointer-to-function.  But many are not.  Suppress compiler warnings
on platforms that aren't careful by inserting explicit casts at the
two call sites that didn't have a cast already.  Per Stefan.

This fixes a very hard to track down heap corruption on windows
when using debug runtimes.

Per suggestion from Alvaro.

* use elog not ereport for debug
* fix debug levels for some output
* properly check for memory allocation errors in a couple of missed places

building from a distribution tarball does not.

Documentation still being written, will be committed later.

literally, whether quoted or not.  Since we allow $ as a character within
identifiers, this behavior is useful, whereas the previous behavior of
treating it as the regexp ending anchor was nearly useless given that the
pattern is automatically anchored anyway.  This affects the arguments of
psql's \d commands as well as pg_dump's -n and -t switches.  Per discussion.

the same outputs as stddev_samp() and var_samp() respectively.

SIGQUIT) will be recognized and processed while waiting for input,
rather than only after something has been typed.  Also make SIGQUIT
do the same thing as SIGTERM in single-user mode, ie, do a normal
shutdown and exit.  Since it's relatively easy to provoke SIGQUIT
from the keyboard, people may try that instead of control-D, and we'd
rather this leads to orderly shutdown.  Per report from Leon Mergen
and subsequent discussion.

we don't know at that point which relation OID to tell pgstat to forget.
The code was passing the relfilenode, which is incorrect, and could possibly
cause some other relation's stats to be zeroed out.  While we could try to
clean this up, it seems much simpler and more reliable to let the next
invocation of pgstat_vacuum_tabstat() fix things; which indeed is how it
worked before I introduced the buggy code into 8.1.3 and later :-(.
Problem noticed by Itagaki Takahiro, fix is per subsequent discussion.

we might be able to localize that error message, but not until this
coding technique has disappeared everywhere.

not OK to include postgres_fe.h into libpq-fe.h, hence declare it as
returning int not bool.

to prevent possible escalation of privilege. Provide new SECURITY
DEFINER functions with old behavior, but initially REVOKE ALL
from public for these functions. Per list discussion and design
proposed by Tom Lane. A different approach will be used for
back-branches, committed separately.

PGconn. Invent a new libpq connection-status function,
PQconnectionUsedPassword() that returns true if the server
demanded a password during authentication, false otherwise.
This may be useful to clients in general, but is immediately
useful to help plug a privilege escalation path in dblink.
Per list discussion and design proposed by Tom Lane.

ORDER BY <constant> as redundant.  One is that this means query_planner()
has to canonicalize pathkeys even when the query jointree is empty;
the canonicalization was always a no-op in such cases before, but no more.
Also, we have to guard against thinking that a set-returning function is
"constant" for this purpose.  Add a couple of regression tests for these
evidently under-tested cases.  Per report from Greg Stark and subsequent
experimentation.

unwarranted liberties with int8 vs float8 values for these types.
Specifically, be sure to apply either hashint8 or hashfloat8 depending
on HAVE_INT64_TIMESTAMP.  Per my gripe of even date.

checkpoint.  The comment claimed that we could do this anytime after
setting the checkpoint REDO point, but actually BufferSync is relying
on the assumption that buffers dumped by other backends will be fsync'd
too.  So we really could not do it any sooner than we are doing it.

Sequences and views could previously be renamed using ALTER TABLE, but
this was a repeated source of confusion for users. Update the docs,
and psql tab completion. Patch from David Fetter; various minor fixes
by myself.

- Prevent the -w option being passed to the postmaster.
- Read the postmaster options file when starting as a Windows service.
