The regression tests abstime, horology, int2, int4, and tinterval fail
by default.  They will pass if comparison is made to one of the
variant expected/*.out files.

(A related problem is that the geometry test fails.  This seems to be
just a matter of FP precision but more rigorous inspection is needed.
No existing expected/geometry-*.out variant matches.)

Define ZIPSUFFIX to allow substitution of something other than gzip.

reloid.version/unique_id file naming is not implemented

to parallel make, kind of resistent to corruption due to incomplete builds.

SQL buffer in listAllDbs is just too small.

documentation.

user is now defined in terms of the user id, the user name is only computed
upon request (for display purposes). This is kind of the opposite of the
previous state, which would maintain the user name and compute the user id
for permission checks.

Besides perhaps saving a few cycles (integer vs string), this now creates a
single point of attack for changing the user id during a connection, for
purposes of "setuid" functions, etc.

    quote_ident(text) returns text
    quote_literal(text) returns text

These are handy to build up properly quoted query strings
for the new PL/pgSQL EXECUTE functionality to submit
dynamic DDL statements.

Great thanks to Hiroshi for pointing out what should have been obvious...

  - full support for IW (ISO week) and vice versa conversion for IW too
    (the to_char 'week' support is now complete and I hope correct).

  Thomas, I use for IW code from timestamp.c, for this I create separate
  function date2isoweek() from original 'case DTK_WEEK:' code in the
  timestamp_part(). I mean will better use one code for same feature in
  date_part() and in to_char(). The isoweek2date() is added to timestamp.c
  too. Right?

  IMHO in 7.1 will all to_char's features complete. It is cca 41 templates
  for date/time and cca 21 for numbers.

 * to_ascii:

   - gcc, is it correct now? :-)


  In the patch is documentation for to_char's IW and for to_ascii().

didn't hear anything about, but which would
have broken with the function manager changes
anyway.

Well, this patch checks that a unique constraint
of some form (unique or pk) is on the referenced
columns of an FK constraint and that the columns
in the referencing table exist at creation time.
The former is to move closer to SQL compatibility
and the latter is in answer to a bug report.
I also added a basic check of this functionality
to the alter table and foreign key regression
tests.

I hope I didn't mess the SGML up too bad, but somebody should definitly
look that over. I tried to steal as much as I could from around :-)

This patch updates:
* Installation instructions (paragraph on how to compile with openssl)
* Documentation of pg_hba.conf (added "hostssl" record docs)
* Libpq documentation (added connection option, documentation of
  PQgetssl() function)
* Add section on SSL to "Server Runtime Environment"

If you beleive any particular area needs more attention, please let me know.

incarnations (I hope). When an acceptable flex version is not found, print
instructive error messages from both configure and the makefiles, so that
users can continue building anyway.

a reasonable error message (including the kernel errno message)
is reported on any file open failure.

virtual FDs, we just return the ENFILE/EMFILE error to the caller,
rather than immediate elog().  This allows more robust behavior in
the postmaster, which uses AllocateFile() but does not want elog().

the harm potential outweighs the possible benefits.

to int so that they return the number of whcars.

on some platforms.

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.
