syntax for language names (instead of 'string').

createlang now handles the case where a second language uses the same call
handler as an already installed language (e.g., plperl/plperlu).

droplang now handles the reverse case, i.e., dropping a language where
the call handler is still used by another language.  Moreover, droplang
can now be used to drop any user-defined language, not just the supplied
ones.

From Joe Conway.

Needed to keep pg_dump from getting confused.

Don't hardcode the maximum accepted server version, use PG_VERSION instead.
Install a notice processor so notices are handled like error messages.
Word smithing.

case where there are resjunk columns in the query.

awhile, but the man page didn't know it.

Other small improvements.

our own code ...

default, but OIDS are removed from many system catalogs that don't need them.
Some interesting side effects: TOAST pointers are 20 bytes not 32 now;
pg_description has a three-column key instead of one.

Bugs fixed in passing: BINARY cursors work again; pg_class.relhaspkey
has some usefulness; pg_dump dumps comments on indexes, rules, and
triggers in a valid order.

initdb forced.

appears to be duplicated (two identical <listitems> right after each
other). Here is a quick patch to remove one instance of it.

* Merges identical code from org.postgresql.jdbc[1|2].Statement into
  org.postgresql.Statement.
* Moves escapeSQL() method from Connection to Statement (the only place
  it's used)
* Minor cleanup of the new isolation level stuff.
* Minor cleanup of version string handling.

2. support for 'pass-by-value' arguments - to test this
   we used special opclass for int4 with values in range [0-2^15]
   More testing will be done after resolving problem with
   index_formtuple and implementation of B-tree using GiST

3. small patch to contrib modules (seg,cube,rtree_gist,intarray) -
   mark functions as 'isstrict' where needed.

consistent type naming.

be able to apply against what you just committed. It rolls soundex into
fuzzystrmatch.

Remove soundex/metaphone and merge into fuzzystrmatch.

Here is a context diff from latest cvs

And I see why you couldn't apply the last diff, the setCatalog diff has
been backed out, that was causing the compile problem in the first
place.

This following one needs to be applied to allow the current cvs to
compile

metaphone() in a contrib. There seem to be a fair number of different
approaches to both of these algorithms. I used the simplest case for
levenshtein which has a cost  of 1 for any character insertion, deletion, or
substitution. For metaphone, I adapted the same code from CPAN that the PHP
folks did.

A couple of questions:
1. Does it make sense to fold the soundex contrib together with this one?

2. I was debating trying to add multibyte support to levenshtein (it would
make no sense at all for metaphone), but a quick search through the contrib
directory found no hits on the word MULTIBYTE. Should worry about adding
multibyte support to levenshtein()?
