In passing, do a bit of wordsmithing on the Genetic Query Optimizer section.

overwriting files in the archive directory before this patch. Patch by
Aidan Van Dyk, Fujii Masao and me.
Backpatch to 8.3, where pg_standby was introduced.

perform dblink_send_query() via dblink_record_internal() -- it was
inappropriate and ugly.
grounds that they don't fit into the specified interval qualifier (typmod).
This behavior, while of long standing, is clearly wrong per spec --- for
example the value INTERVAL '999' SECOND means 999 seconds and should not be
reduced to less than 60 seconds.
In some cases there could be grounds to raise an error if higher-order field
values are not given as zero; for example '1 year 1 month'::INTERVAL MONTH
should arguably be taken as an error rather than equivalent to 13 months.
However our internal representation doesn't allow us to do that in a fashion
that would consistently reject all and only the cases that a strict reading
of the spec would suggest. Also, seeing that for example INTERVAL '13' MONTH
will print out as '1 year 1 mon', we have to be careful not to create a
situation where valid data will fail to dump and reload. The present patch
therefore takes the attitude of not throwing an error in any such case.
We might want to revisit that in future but it would take more redesign
than seems prudent in late beta.
Per a complaint from Sebastien Flaesch and subsequent discussion. While
at other times we might have just postponed such an issue to the next
development cycle, 8.4 already has changed the parsing of interval literals
quite a bit in an effort to accept all spec-compliant cases correctly.
This seems like a change that should be part of that rather than coming
along later.
YEAR, DECADE, CENTURY, or MILLENIUM fields, just as it always has done for
other types of fields. The previous behavior seems to have been a hack to
avoid defining bit-positions for all these field types in DTK_M() masks,
rather than something that was really considered to be desired behavior.
But there is room in the masks for these, and we really need to tighten up
at least the behavior of DAY and YEAR fields to avoid unexpected behavior
associated with the 8.4 changes to interpret ambiguous fields based on the
interval qualifier (typmod) value. Per my example and proposed patch.
queries frequently took no lock at all on individual indexes. That's not
true any more, but we still need lock on the parent table to make it safe
to use cached lists of index OIDs.
throwing an error as 8.4 had been doing. The error interfered with porting
old database definitions (particularly for pg_migrator) without really buying
any safety. Per bug #4817 and subsequent discussion.

with Gevik Babakhani, this eliminates the need for an ugly kluge (namely,
specifying some unrelated relation name). Remove one such kluge from
pg_dump.

Per gripe from Andrew McNamara.
This is potentially a back-patchable bug fix, but for the moment it doesn't
seem sufficiently high impact to justify doing that.
this case is worth a special code path, but a special code path that gets
the boundary condition wrong is definitely no good. Per bug #4821 from
Andrew Gierth.
In passing, clean up some minor code formatting issues (excess parentheses

Back-patch to 8.3, where the bug was introduced.
there's no analyzable attributes or indexes. We also used to report 0 live

calculations.
This fixes bug #4812 reported by George Su. Backpatch back to 8.1.
copies?) to ensure they really don't run proc_exit/shmem_exit callbacks,
as was intended. I broke this behavior recently by installing atexit
callbacks without thinking about the one case where we truly don't want
to run those callback functions. Noted in an example from Dave Page.
