loading new data, for consistency with its handling of pg_shadow.

user, so it doesn't need to be translated from the number to the name.

also ``create database ...'' does not take numbers for the encoding, so
the ENCODING variable does not need to be translated to a number, but left
as the text representation.  a patch is supplied to make the changes i
have found to work.  i was successful dumping and reloading my database
after these changes.

if MULTIBYTE is not enabled. So be sure to run initdb.

o these patches are made against the latest source tree (after
Bruce's massive patch, I think) BTW, I noticed that after running
regression, the oid field of pg_type seems disappeared.

	regression=> select oid from pg_type; ERROR:  attribute
	'oid' not found

this happens after the constraints test. This occures with/without
my patches. strange...

o pg_database_mb.h, pg_class_mb.h, pg_attribute_mb.h are no longer
used, and shoud be removed.

o GetDatabaseInfo() in utils/misc/database.c removed (actually in
#ifdef 0). seems nobody uses.

I see someone missed an ancient bit of shell-scripting lore:
on some older shells, if your script's argument list is empty,
then "$@" generates an empty-string word rather than no word
at all.  You need to write ${1+"$@"} to get the latter behavior.
(Read your shell man page to see exactly how that works,
but it does the Right Thing on every Bourne shell.)

In particular, pg_dumpall fails when invoked without any switches
on HPUX 9.*, because pg_dump gets an empty-string argument that it
thinks is the name of the database to dump.  I expect this bug
also affects some other OSes, but couldn't tell you just which ones.
Patch attached.

Change pg_attribute.attnvals to float4, change #ifdef 0 to #if 0, fix aix call to strNcpy, fix pg_super_user_id in pg_dumpall, change pg_database.dtadba from oid to int4.

Made PQsetdb() and PQfnumber() case-insensitive.
Removed attempt to set table ownership via pg_dumpall.
