l2 contained more than one entry, there would be duplicates in the output
list.  Miscellaneous code beautification in other routines, too.

commuted (ie, the index var appears on the right).  These are now handled
the same way as merge and hash join quals that need to be commuted: the
actual reversing of the clause only happens if we actually choose the path
and generate a plan from it.  Furthermore, the clause is only reversed in
the 'indexqual' field of the plan, not in the 'indxqualorig' field.  This
allows the clause to still be recognized and removed from qpquals of upper
level join plans.  Also, simplify and generalize match_clause_to_indexkey;
now it recognizes binary-compatible indexes for join as well as restriction
clauses.

contains much code that looks like it will handle indexquals with the index
key on either side of the operator, in fact indexquals must have the index
key on the left because of limitations of the ScanKey machinery.  Perhaps
someone will be motivated to fix that someday...

routines that are now dead code.

work under a wider range of scenarios than it did --- it formerly did not
handle a multi-pass inner scan, nor cases in which the inner scan's
indxqualorig or non-index qual contained outer var references.  I am not
sure that these limitations could be hit in the existing optimizer, but
they need to be fixed for future expansion.

expression_tree_mutator.

Centralize att_disbursion readout logic.

multi-scan indexscan plans; it tried to use the same table-to-index
attribute mapping for all the scans, even if they used different indexes.
It would klugily work as long as OR indexquals never used multikey indexes,
but that's not likely to hold up much longer...

walking logic with expression_tree_walker/mutator calls.

to go along with expression_tree_walker.  (_walker is not suitable for
routines that need to alter the tree structure significantly.)  Other minor
cleanups in clauses.c.

Also, move responsibility for calling vc_abort into main xact.c list of
things-to-call-at-abort.  What in the world was it doing down inside of
TransactionIdAbort()?

was recording a disbursion of 0, not the correct value 1/numberOfRows.

Thanks to Garr Updegraff <garru@uci.edu> for the tip.

Use refentry.sgml as a generic header for man pages through nsgmls.

Add new pages for programming languages and tcl shells.

 chapter is included, not the chapter itself.
Thanks to Evelyn Mitchell <efm@tummy.com> for pointing it out.

Fix rules for man pages to ensure double-pass to get cross references.
Add a few new man pages.

Fix source indenting, which does not affect output.
Note: still need docs on NUMERIC and DECIMAL
 (and let's not talk about regression tests :()

hashjoinable clause, not one path for a randomly-chosen element of each
set of clauses with the same join operator.  That is, if you wrote
   SELECT ... WHERE t1.f1 = t2.f2 and t1.f3 = t2.f4,
and both '=' ops were the same opcode (say, all four fields are int4),
then the system would either consider hashing on f1=f2 or on f3=f4,
but it would *not* consider both possibilities.  Boo hiss.
Also, revise estimation of hashjoin costs to include a penalty when the
inner join var has a high disbursion --- ie, the most common value is
pretty common.  This tends to lead to badly skewed hash bucket occupancy
and way more comparisons than you'd expect on average.
I imagine that the cost calculation still needs tweaking, but at least
it generates a more reasonable plan than before on George Young's example.

constant-coercion expression in the rules test.

constants, not only string constants, at parse time.  Get rid of
parser_typecast2(), which is bogus and redundant...

use Autoconf-approved method of testing for predefined symbols, and move
it down to where we know what compiler to run and how to run it.

in MVCC environment.  I do not trust this until Vadim says it's OK...

(it should just call the given operator, not look up an = operator).
Fix intltsel() so that all numeric data types are converted to double
before trying to estimate where the given comparison value is in the
known range of column values.  intltsel() still needs work, or replacement,
for non-numeric data types ... but for nonintegral numeric types it
should now be delivering reasonable estimates.

back out last...
