more, and standard_conforming_strings less, because in the future non-E
strings will not treat backslashes specially.

Also use E'' strings where backslashes are used in examples. (The
existing examples would have drawn warnings.)

Backpatch to 8.2.X.

The original coding failed (tried to access deallocated memory) if there were
two active call sites (fn_extra pointers) for the same function and the
function definition was updated.  Also, if an update of a recursive function
was detected upon nested entry to the function, the existing compiled version
was summarily deallocated, resulting in crash upon return to the outer
instance.  Problem observed while studying a bug report from Sergiy
Vyshnevetskiy.

Bug does not exist before 8.1 since older versions just leaked the memory of
obsoleted compiled functions, rather than trying to reclaim it.

by plpgsql can themselves use SPI --- possibly indirectly, as in the case
of domain_in() invoking plpgsql functions in a domain check constraint.
Per bug #2945 from Sergiy Vyshnevetskiy.

Somewhat arbitrarily, I've chosen to back-patch this as far as 8.0.  Given
the lack of prior complaints, it doesn't seem critical for 7.x.

Hashing for aggregation purposes still needs work, so it's not time to
mark any cross-type operators as hashable for general use, but these cases
work if the operators are so marked by hand in the system catalogs.

match because they contain a null join key (and the join operator is
known strict).  Improves performance significantly when the inner
relation contains a lot of nulls, as per bug #2930.

safely in the presence of subtransactions.  To ensure that any ExprContext
shutdown callbacks are called at the right times, we have to have a separate
EState for each level of subtransaction.  Per "TupleDesc reference leak" bug
report from Stefan Kaltenbrunner.

Although I'm convinced the code is wrong as far back as 8.0, it doesn't seem
that there are any ways for the problem to really manifest before 8.2: AFAICS,
8.0 and 8.1 only use the ExprContextCallback mechanism to handle set-returning
functions, which cannot usefully be executed in a "simple expression" anyway.
Hence, no backpatch before 8.2 --- the risk of unforeseen breakage seems
to outweigh the chance of fixing something.

exactly at the point where we need to insert a new item, the calculation used
the wrong size for the "high key" of the new left page.  This could lead to
choosing an unworkable split, resulting in "PANIC: failed to add item to the
left sibling" (or "right sibling") failure.  Although this bug has been there
a long time, it's very difficult to trigger a failure before 8.2, since there
was generally a lot of free space on both sides of a chosen split.  In 8.2,
where the user-selected fill factor determines how much free space the code
tries to leave, an unworkable split is much more likely.  Report by Joe
Conway, diagnosis and fix by Heikki Linnakangas.
