the API of PQdsplen without bothering to fix its callers.  Although
ReportSyntaxErrorPosition could probably do with more smarts about
handling control characters, for the moment I'll just get it back to
handling tabs consistently.

comments on cluster global objects like databases, tablespaces, and
roles.

It touches a lot of places, but not much in the way of big changes.  The
only design decision I made was to duplicate the query and manipulation
functions rather than to try and have them handle both shared and local
comments.  I believe this is simpler for the code and not an issue for
callers because they know what type of object they are dealing with.
This has resulted in a shobj_description function analagous to
obj_description and backend functions [Create/Delete]SharedComments
mirroring the existing [Create/Delete]Comments functions.

pg_shdescription.h goes into src/include/catalog/

This is mostly just over-compulsiveness on my part, but the exercise
did reveal one real bug: errors.out has a space difference now where
it should not.

after the data in the last column on a line.

(optionally) to a new host and port without exiting psql.  This
eliminates, IMHO, a surprise in that you can now connect to PostgreSQL
on a differnt machine from the one where you started your session. This
should help people who use psql as an administrative tool.

during the vacuumcleanup scan that we're going to do anyway.  Should
save a few cycles (one calculation per page, not per tuple) as well
as not having to depend on assumptions about heap and index being
in step.
I think this could probably be made to work for GIST too, but that
code looks messy enough that I'm disinclined to try right now.

partial.  None of the existing AMs do anything useful except counting
tuples when there's nothing to delete, and we can get a tuple count
from the heap as long as it's not a partial index.  (hash actually can
skip anyway because it maintains a tuple count in the index metapage.)
GIST is not currently able to exploit this optimization because, due to
failure to index NULLs, GIST is always effectively partial.  Possibly
we should fix that sometime.

regardless of the current schema search path.  Since CREATE OPERATOR CLASS
only allows one default opclass per datatype regardless of schemas, this
should have minimal impact, and it fixes problems with failure to find a
desired opclass while restoring dump files.  Per discussion at
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2006-02/msg00284.php.
Remove now-redundant-or-unused code in typcache.c and namespace.c,
and backpatch as far as 8.0.

Add line number to error output during affix file parsing.

  If the second output column value is 'a\nb', the 'b' should appear
  in the second display column, rather than the first column as it
  does now.

Change libpq's PQdsplen() to return more useful values.

BACKWARD COMPATIBLE CHANGE.

The only user-visible change I saw in the regression tests is that a
SELECT * on a table where all the columns have been dropped doesn't
return a blank line like before.  This seems like a step forward.

not print the owner name in the object comment.

eg:

--
-- Name: actor; Type: TABLE; Schema: public; Owner: chriskl; Tablespace:
--

Becomes:

--
-- Name: actor; Type: TABLE; Schema: public; Owner: -; Tablespace:
--

This makes it far easier to do 'user independent' dumps.  Especially for
distribution to third parties.

  sorry but fix can't be applyed to previous version: it's require
  refill tsvector...
2 Small optimize of load time for huge dictionaries
3 use palloc instead of malloc during load dict file

match SGML documentation.

Kris Jurka

 Fixed missing continuation line character.
 Do not translate $-quoting.
 Bit field notation belongs to a variable not a variable list.
 Output of line number only done by one function.

Since we now use libtermcap in preference to libcurses, no need for hack
anymore.
