the COPY NULL string:

        test=> copy pg_language to '/tmp/x' with delimiter '|';

        test=> copy pg_language to '/tmp/x' with delimiter '|' null '|x';

        test=> copy pg_language from '/tmp/x' with delimiter '|' null '|x';
        ERROR:  COPY delimiter must not appear in the NULL specification

It also throws an error if it conflicts with the default NULL string:

        test=> copy pg_language to '/tmp/x' with delimiter '\\';
        ERROR:  COPY delimiter must not appear in the NULL specification
        test=> copy pg_language to '/tmp/x' with delimiter '\\' NULL 'x';
        COPY

sched_yield is a requirement for the test but not for our PostgreSQL
code, so if it causes a portability problem, we will remove it.

in itself do much for us, except eliminate the horrid memory leak
associated with evaluation of whole-row variables.  However, it lays the
groundwork for allowing composite types as table columns, and perhaps
some other useful features as well.  Per my proposal of a few days ago.

1.  In keeping with the recent discussion that there should be more
said about views, stored procedures, and triggers, in the tutorial, I
have added a bit of verbiage to that end.

2.  Some formatting changes to the datetime discussion, as well as
addition of a citation of a relevant book on calendars.
