valid result from a computation if one of the input values was infinity.
The previous code assumed an operation that returned infinity was an
overflow.

Handle underflow/overflow consistently, and add checks for aggregate
overflow.

Consistently prevent Inf/Nan from being cast to integer data types.

Fix INT_MIN % -1 to prevent overflow.

Update regression results for new error text.

pg_opclass during LookupOpclassInfo(), I'd turned pg_opclass_oid_index
into a critical system index.  However the problem could only manifest
during a backend's first attempt to load opclass data, and then only
if it had successfully loaded pg_internal.init and subsequently received
a relcache flush; which made it impossible to reproduce in sequential
tests and darn hard even in parallel tests.  Memo to self: when
exercising cache flush scenarios, must disable LookupOpclassInfo's
internal cache too.

benefit of the opfamily rewrite: we can find the needed comparison
operators now.

the 8.1 SQL function definition for it.  Per report from Rajesh Kumar Mallah,
such a DBA error doesn't seem at all improbable, and the cost of checking for
it is not very high compared to the cost of running this function.  (It would
have been better to change the C name of the function so it wouldn't be called
by the old SQL definition, but it's too late for that now in the 8.2 branch.)

do this for ordinary SQL commands, so it seems consistent to do it for
backslash commands too.  Per gripe from Rajesh Kumar Mallah.

of increasing size, instead of one at a time.  This reduces the memory
management overhead when num_temp_buffers is large: in the previous coding
we would actually waste 50% of the space used for temp buffers, because aset.c
would round the individual requests up to 16K.  Problem noted while studying
a performance issue reported by Steven Flatt.

Back-patch as far as 8.1 --- older versions used few enough local buffers
that the issue isn't significant for them.

has a small maxBlockSize: the maximum request size that we will treat as a
"chunk" needs to be limited to fit in maxBlockSize.  Otherwise we will round
up the request size to the next power of 2, wasting space, which is a bit
pointless if we aren't going to make the blocks big enough to fit additional
stuff in them.  The example motivating this is local buffer management, which
makes repeated allocations of 8K (one BLCKSZ buffer) in TopMemoryContext,
which has maxBlockSize = 8K because for the most part allocations there are
small.  This leads to each local buffer actually eating 16K of space, which
adds up when there are thousands of them.  I intend to change localbuf.c to
aggregate its requests, which will prevent this particular misbehavior, but
it seems likely that similar scenarios could arise elsewhere, so fixing the
core problem seems wise as well.

involving HashAggregate over SubqueryScan (this is the known case, there
may well be more).  The bug is only latent in releases before 8.2 since they
didn't try to access tupletable slots' descriptors during ExecDropTupleTable.
The least bogus fix seems to be to make subqueries share the parent query's
memory context, so that tupdescs they create will have the same lifespan as
those of the parent query.  There are comments in the code envisioning going
even further by not having a separate child EState at all, but that will
require rethinking executor access to range tables, which I don't want to
tackle right now.  Per bug report from Jean-Pierre Pelletier.

ps_TupFromTlist in plan nodes that make use of it.  This was being done
correctly in join nodes and Result nodes but not in any relation-scan nodes.
Bug would lead to bogus results if a set-returning function appeared in the
targetlist of a subquery that could be rescanned after partial execution,
for example a subquery within EXISTS().  Bug has been around forever :-(

were marked canSetTag.  While it's certainly correct to return the result
of the last one that is marked canSetTag, it's less clear what to do when
none of them are.  Since plpgsql will complain if zero is returned, the
8.2.0 behavior isn't good.  I've fixed it to restore the prior behavior of
returning the physically last query's result code when there are no
canSetTag queries.

pgbench calls random() later, so it should have called srandom().
On most platforms except Windows srandom() is actually identical
to srand(), so the bug only bites Windows users.

Use a TRY block instead of (inadequate) ad-hoc coding to ensure that
libxml is cleaned up after a failure.  Report the intended SQLCODE
instead of defaulting to XX000.  Avoid risking use of a dangling
pointer by keeping the persistent error buffer in TopMemoryContext.
Be less trusting that error messages don't contain %.

This patch doesn't do anything about changing the way the messages
are put together --- this is just about mechanism.

Clean up libxml reporting mechanism a bit (it still looks like a
dangling-pointer crash waiting to happen, though, not to mention
being far less than sane from a localization standpoint).

of reverse-listing correctly (though it's still a de-escaping function
