query representation.  Note that GEQO_RELS setting is now interpreted
as the number of top-level items in the FROM list, not necessarily the
number of relations in the query.  This seems appropriate since we are
only doing join-path searching over the top-level items.

There is still no effective difference but it will kick in once setuid

been given an alias.  Otherwise, results are incorrect.

revise ODBC "installation instructions"; update some other outdated
documentation; update contrib documentation

ie, consider only the columns coming from the JOIN clause's sub-clauses.
Also detect attempts to reference columns belonging to other tables
(which would still be possible using an explicitly-qualified name).
I'm not sure this implements the spec's semantics 100% accurately, but
at least it gives plausible behavior.

DESTDIR=/else/where' and prepends the value of DESTDIR to the full
installation paths (e.g., /else/where/usr/local/pgsql/bin). This allows
users to install the package into a location different from the one that
was configured and hard-coded into various scripts, e.g., for creating
binary packages.

DESTDIR is in many cases preferrable over `make install
prefix=/else/where' because

a) `prefix' affects the path that is hard-coded into the files, which can
lead to a `make install prefix=xxx' (as done by the regression test
driver) corrupting the files in the source tree with wrong paths.

b) it doesn't work at all if a directory was overridden to not depend on
`prefix', e.g., --sysconfdir=/etc.

(Updating the regression test driver to use DESTDIR is a separate
undertaking.)

can still work, per recent discussion on pghackers.  Correct some bugs
in ILIKE implementation.

- Use symbols for tests on relkind (ie. use RELKIND_VIEW, not 'v')
- Fix bug in support for -b option (== --blobs).
- Dump views as views (using 'create view').
- Remove 'isViewRule' since we check the relkind when getting tables.
- Now uses temp table 'pgdump_oid' rather than 'pg_dump_oid' (errors otherwise).
- Added extra param for specifying handling of OID=0 and which typename to output.
- Fixed bug in SQL scanner when SQL contained braces. (in rules)
- Use format_type function wherever possible

 regression tests for specific types, and move a few others to the
 cross-type "horology" test.
Rearrange the test order slightly, and move the abstime test to the
 "parallel safe" area.
Hand-patch the results for "1947" and for "solaris", so those may not
 be exactly correct.

ends to clean up (see my message of same date to pghackers), but mostly
it works.  INITDB REQUIRED!

relation to a view when you create an ON INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE rule ...

There are still two out-of-date variants for horology; shame shame.

one-line change necessary. Due to the Mark Holloman "New Relkind for
Views" patch, my support for views in the driver will need to be updated
to match. The change to DatabaseMetaData.getTableTypes[][] is as
follows:

-    {"VIEW",           "(relkind='r' and relhasrules='t' and relname !~
'^pg_' and relname !~ '^xinv')"},
+    {"VIEW",           "(relkind='v' and relname !~ '^pg_' and relname
!~ '^xinv')"},

Modify date->timestamp conversion to use mktime().
 This should do better than before around Daylight Savings Time
