I have implemented a better user interface (well part of) so you can use it
as expected. As usual there are some bug fixes. :-)

Well this is not really a patch. But I mananged to get Linus' old Postgres95
precompiler to compile and work with PostgreSQL. The next step would be to
collect bug/missing feature reports and to put it into the distribution so
that it is made with the standard make procedure.

Warning! So far it is not tested much and it does not install correctly. But
I was able to create a small binary with it.

        select  from  a  table  with  attrs  (a  int, b char(20))
        crashed in bpcharout() (palloc of -1 bytes). But a  table
        with attrs (a int, b varchar(20)) worked.

output at least doesn't appear that its missing something.

wasn't particularly confident with removing 'caller' altogether :(

 surrounded by parentheses (but not all are meaningful).
Remove unused keywords ACL, APPEND, MERGE.
Requires a "make clean" to recompile all code since keyword numeric
 assignments have changed with keyword removal.

Cleanup for vacuum help, manual page, and error message

Fix inclusion of 'tas.s' for various ports

 been set in the session.
General cleanup of timezone support code.

Define functions and operators for closest point to lseg on box,
 to line on lseg, to lseg on lseg.
Define function and operator for length of lseg.
Change length operator from '??' to '@-@'
 (currently defined for path and lseg).

Define close_ls(), close_lseg(), lseg_length().
Write real code for close_sb(), close_pb(), inter_sb(), inter_lb().
Repair lseg_perp() which determines if two lsegs are perpendicular.
Repair lseg_dt() distance between two lsegs.
Note: close_sl() is clearly broken  but will repair later
 (calculating point on lseg rather than point on line).

structure, and move the init_address_fixup() code directly into
backend/main/main.c with appropriate #ifdefs around it...
