the latest version and I wanted to make sure that there was a clean release.

I also change the build files as I discussed in my letter of Nov 6, 2001.  At
the time I was asked to hold off until after the release.

functions, *not* WinSock.  We need to look for a workable solution for
older Windows flavors ... but it won't happen for PG 7.2.

At least it was now detected correctly.

to give more useful error messages.  Stephen Szabo's example of this
morning ('loop' used as a variable name inside a subselect) works
correctly now, and a FOR that is misinterpreted as an integer FOR will
draw 'missing .. at end of SQL expression', which is at least
marginally helpful.

remove brain-dead rule that double quotes are needed if and only if the
datatype is pass-by-reference; neither direction of the implication holds
water.  Instead, examine the actual data string to see if it contains
any characters that force us to quote it.
Add some documentation about quoting of array values, which was previously
explained nowhere AFAICT.

I learned the hard way that

        #if UNDEFINED_1 == UNDEFINED_2
        #error "gcc is idiot"
        #endif

prints "gcc is idiot" ...

Affected are MD5/SHA1 in internal library, and also HMAC-MD5/HMAC-SHA1/
crypt-md5 which use them.  Blowfish is ok, also Rijndael on at
least x86.

Big thanks to Daniel Holtzman who send me a build log which
contained warning:

Yes, gcc is that helpful...

Please apply this.
