comment line where output as too long, and update typedefs for /lib
directory. Also fix case where identifiers were used as variable names
in the backend, but as typedefs in ecpg (favor the backend for
indenting).
Backpatch to 8.1.X.
executable file isn't itself a symlink. We still need to run the
algorithm so that any directory symlinks in the path to the
executable are replaced by a true path. Noticed this on seeing
pg_config give me a completely wrong answer for --pkglibdir when
I called it through a symlink to the installation bindir.
actual executable location. This allows people to continue to use
setups where, eg, postmaster is symlinked from a convenient place.
Per gripe from Josh Berkus.
everywhere not just some places, get rid of . and .. when joining path
sections together. This should eliminate most of the ugly paths like
/foo/bar/./baz that we've been generating.
of '.' or '..'. Extend canonicalize_path() to trim off trailing occurrences
of these things, and use it to fix up paths where needed (which I think is
only after places where we trim the last path component, but maybe some
others will turn up). Fixes Josh's complaint that './initdb' does not
work.
extensive change then what was suggested. I found the file path.c that
contained a lot of "Unix/Windows" agnostic functions so I added a function
there instead and removed the PATHSEP declaration in exec.c altogether. All
to keep things from scattering all over the code.
I also took the liberty of changing the name of the functions
"first_path_sep" and "last_path_sep". Where I come from (and I'm apparently
not alone given the former macro name PATHSEP), they should be called
"first_dir_sep" and "last_dir_sep". The new function I introduced, that
actually finds path separators, is now the "first_path_sep". The patch
contains changes on all affected places of course.
I also changed the documentation on dynamic_library_path to reflect the
chagnes.

timezone code and other places.
Remove elog() calls from find_my_exec; do fprintf(stderr) instead. We
can then remove the exec.c handling in the makefile because it doesn't
have to be built to suppress elog calls.
