now TOAST-able.

one of updating the whole text datatype, but there are so dang many
calls of these two routines that it seems worth a separate commit.

Now it skips useless SEEK_CUR 0 calls too, as intended.

add check for libz compression library for pg_dump

Special handling of TOAST relations during VACUUM. TOAST relations
are vacuumed while the lock on the master table is still active.
The ANALYZE flag doesn't propagate to their vacuuming because the
toaster access routines allways use index access ignoring stats, so
why compute them at all.

Protection of TOAST relations against normal INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE
while offering SELECT for debugging purposes.

PostgreSQL-7.0.2 run on Linux for the Intel-IA64 architecture. It also
fixes a bug in the configure scripts that caused configure to fail on
the fcntl(F_SETLK) test.

This fix triggered a bug in the fcntl(F_SETLK) code of the Linux
kernel when used on unix domain sockets resulting in postmaster to
segfault immediately after startup. There is a fix available and
included in the kernel that will be on SuSE Linux 7.0, but kernels <=
2.2.16 still have this bug.

Doesn't anyone remember how to program a binary search??

from Paul McGarry.

Don't go through pg_exec_query_dest(), but directly to the execution
routines.  Also, extend parameter lists so that there's no need to
change the global setting of allowSystemTableMods, a hack that was
certain to cause trouble in the event of any error.
