the harm potential outweighs the possible benefits.

to int so that they return the number of whcars.

argument, change the order of tests for the third argument to be safe
against missing prototypes, and make it fail hard if none of the
combinations succeed.

packages can use to configure their build.

E.g.,
$ pg-config --libdir
/usr/local/pgsql/lib

`pg-config --configure' stores the configure command line.

equal keys.  See discussion of today's date in pghackers list.

length is < TOAST_TUPLE_THRESHOLD, even with toastable column types
present.  For example, CREATE TABLE foo (f1 int, f2 varchar(100))
does not require a toast table, even though varchar is a toastable
type.

Fix new problems in insert.sgml and create_function.sgml which kept jade
 from completing.

       pg_mb2wchar(const unsigned char *, pg_wchar *);
       pg_mb2wchar_with_len(const unsigned char *, pg_wchar *, int);
from void to int. Now they return the number of
wide chars.

(rather than compile time). For libpq, even when Kerberos support is
compiled in, the default user name should still fall back to geteuid()
if it can't be determined via the Kerberos system.

A couple of fixes for string type configuration parameters, now that there
is one.

Datum, not char*, for portability's sake.

for example, an SQL function can be used in a functional index.  (I make
no promises about speed, but it'll work ;-).)  Clean up and simplify
handling of functions returning sets.

Remove hardcoded macaddr_manuf(), which had really old, obsolete info.
 Replace this with some contrib/mac/ code to maniag OUI info from IEEE.

Eliminate up-to-4-times memory allocation problem

right circumstances a hash join executed as a DECLARE CURSOR/FETCH
query would crash the backend.  Problem as seen in current sources was
that the hash tables were stored in a context that was a child of
TransactionCommandContext, which got zapped at completion of the FETCH
command --- but cursor cleanup executed at COMMIT expected the tables
to still be valid.  I haven't chased down the details as seen in 7.0.*
but I'm sure it's the same general problem.

pg_proc.c (where it's actually used).  Fix it to correctly handle tlists
that contain resjunk target items, and improve error messages.  This
addresses bug reported by Krupnikov 6-July-00.

Also, make it depend on type OIDs rather than type names for more
consistency with rest of backend.

macros where appropriate (the code used to have several different ways
of doing that, including Int32, Int8, UInt8, ...).  Remove last few
references to float32 and float64 typedefs --- it's all float4/float8
now.  The typedefs themselves should probably stay in c.h for a release
or two, though, to avoid breaking user-written C functions.

Update functions to new-style fmgr, make BIT and VARBIT be binary-
equivalent, add entries to allow these types to be btree indexed,
correct a few bugs.  BIT/VARBIT are now toastable, too.
