authentication failed' and a 'send() failed: Broken pipe' message
on every connection from psql in password auth mode.  Problem is
that psql doesn't ask user for a password until it sees a password
challenge failure, and libpq just closes the connection unceremoniously
if it's challenged for a password when it hasn't got one to send.
Accordingly, EOF from the client after asking for a password is
normal behavior and should not result in postmaster log entries.

STATUS_xxx macros to reduce clutter.

the entered password would get echoed on some platforms, eg HPUX.
We have enough copies of this code that I'm thinking it ought to be
moved into libpq, but that's a task for another day.

 Modified the parser and the SET handlers to use full Node structures
 rather than simply a character string argument.
Implement INTERVAL() YEAR TO MONTH (etc) syntax per SQL99.
 Does not yet accept the goofy string format that goes along with, but
 this should be fairly straight forward to fix now as a bug or later
 as a feature.
Implement precision for the INTERVAL() type.
 Use the typmod mechanism for both of INTERVAL features.
Fix the INTERVAL syntax in the parser:
 opt_interval was in the wrong place.
INTERVAL is now a reserved word, otherwise we get reduce/reduce errors.
Implement an explicit date_part() function for TIMETZ.
 Should fix coersion problem with INTERVAL reported by Peter E.
Fix up some error messages for date/time types.
 Use all caps for type names within message.
Fix recently introduced side-effect bug disabling 'epoch' as a recognized
 field for date_part() etc. Reported by Peter E. (??)
Bump catalog version number.
Rename "microseconds" current transaction time field
 from ...Msec to ...Usec. Duh!
date/time regression tests updated for reference platform, but a few
 changes will be necessary for others.

clause being added to a particular restriction-clause list is redundant
with those already in the list.  This avoids useless work at runtime,
and (perhaps more importantly) keeps the selectivity estimation routines
from generating too-small estimates of numbers of output rows.
Also some minor improvements in OPTIMIZER_DEBUG displays.

view when using the aggregate function count() and function nextval
that returns an int8 value, but in python is represented like string:

>> db.query("select nextval('my_seq')").getresult()
[('2',)]

>> db.query("select count(*) from films").dictresult()
[{'count': '120'}]

My patch doesn't loose the option, it's never been passed on anyway:

 opt_with_grant:  WITH GRANT OPTION
                                {
                                        mmerror(ET_ERROR, "WITH GRANT OPTION is not supported.  Only relation owners can
 set privileges");
                                 }
                | /*EMPTY*/
                ;

The existing code in ecpg/preproc/preproc.y to handle the WITH option
simply throws an error and aborts the processing... The patch below
prevents the segfault and also passes on the WITH option to the
backend, probably a better fix.

Also, update mb/expected/unicode.out. This is necessary since the

---------------------------------------------------------------
Hi,

I should have sent the patch earlier, but got delayed by other stuff.
Anyway, here is the patch:

- most of the functionality is only activated when MULTIBYTE is
  defined,

- check valid UTF-8 characters, client-side only yet, and only on
  output, you still can send invalid UTF-8 to the server (so, it's
  only partly compliant to Unicode 3.1, but that's better than
  nothing).

- formats with the correct number of columns (that's why I made it in
  the first place after all), but only for UNICODE. However, the code
  allows to plug-in routines for other encodings, as Tatsuo did for
  the other multibyte functions.

- corrects a bit the UTF-8 code from Tatsuo to allow Unicode 3.1
  characters (characters with values >= 0x10000, which are encoded on
  four bytes).

- doesn't depend on the locale capabilities of the glibc (useful for
  remote telnet).

I would like somebody to check it closely, as it is my first patch to
pgsql.  Also, I created dummy .orig files, so that the two files I
created are included, I hope that's the right way.

Now, a lot of functionality is NOT included here, but I will keep that
for 7.3 :) That includes all string checking on the server side (which
will have to be a bit more optimised ;) ), and the input checking on
the client side for UTF-8, though that should not be difficult. It's
just to send the strings through mbvalidate() before sending them to
the server. Strong checking on UTF-8 strings is mandatory to be
compliant with Unicode 3.1+ .

Do I have time to look for a patch to include iso-8859-15 for 7.2 ?
The euro is coming 1. january 2002 (before 7.3 !) and over 280
millions people in Europe will need the euro sign and only iso-8859-15
and iso-8859-16 have it (and unfortunately, I don't think all Unices
will switch to Unicode in the meantime)....

err... yes, I know that this is not every single person in Europe that
uses PostgreSql, so it's not exactly 280m, but it's just a matter of
time ! ;)

I'll come back (on pgsql-hackers) later to ask a few questions
regarding the full unicode support (normalisation, collation,
regexes,...) on the server side :)

Here is the patch !

Patrice.
