Conway (BuildTupleFromCStrings sets NULL for pass-by-value types when
intended value is 0). It also implements some other improvements
suggested by Neil.

changed since CREATE CONVERSION supported.

conversion procs and conversions are added in initdb. Currently
supported conversions are:

UTF-8(UNICODE) <--> SQL_ASCII, ISO-8859-1 to 16, EUC_JP, EUC_KR,
		    EUC_CN, EUC_TW, SJIS, BIG5, GBK, GB18030, UHC,
		    JOHAB, TCVN

EUC_JP <--> SJIS
EUC_TW <--> BIG5
MULE_INTERNAL <--> EUC_JP, SJIS, EUC_TW, BIG5

Note that initial contents of pg_conversion system catalog are created
in the initdb process. So doing initdb required is ideal, it's
possible to add them to your databases by hand, however. To accomplish
this:

psql -f your_postgresql_install_path/share/conversion_create.sql your_database

So I did not bump up the version in cataversion.h.

TODO:
Add more conversion procs
Add [CASCADE|RESTRICT] to DROP CONVERSION
Add tuples to pg_depend
Add regression tests
Write docs
Add SQL99 CONVERT command?

defined now drops the associated sequence automatically.

objects created during initdb (except for the system views, which I
think do not need to be pinned).

Here's a patch to fix the binary string doc errors.

to build dependencies for rules, constraint expressions, and default
expressions.  Repair some problems in the original design of
recursiveDeletion() exposed by more complex dependency sets.  Fix
regression tests that were deleting things in illegal sequences.

one place.  Everything may be moved to src/utils eventually.

Add DLLINIT variable to simplify makfiles.

Lockhart.  initdb not forced.

UNIQUE and DISTINCT predicates are both listed as implemented -- AFAIK,
neither is.

I also included another trivial patch which adds the default location
of the DSSSL stylesheets on my system (Debian unstable, docbook-dsssl
1.76) to the list of paths that configure looks for.

so that dependencies in default expressions (on operators, functions,
etc) can be expressed properly.

Fix comment.c to not depend on parser token values, per discussion awhile
back.

scans that will most likely be caused by SearchSysCache probes.  Also,
share some code between index deletion and table deletion.

varno of index's relation is not 1.  This embarrassing oversight pointed
out by Dmitry Tkach 12-Jul-02.
