uses SPI plans, this finally fixes the ancient gotcha that you can't
drop and recreate a temp table used by a plpgsql function.
Along the way, clean up SPI's API a little bit by declaring SPI plan
pointers as "SPIPlanPtr" instead of "void *". This is cosmetic but
helps to forestall simple programming mistakes. (I have changed some
but not all of the callers to match; there are still some "void *"'s
in contrib and the PL's. This is intentional so that we can see if
anyone's compiler complains about it.)
with minor editorization by me.
Hstore improvements
* add operation hstore ? text - excat equivalent of exist()
* remove undocumented behaviour of contains operation with NULL value
* now 'key'::text=>NULL returns '"key"=>NULL' instead of NULL
* Add GIN support for contains and exist operations
* Add GiST support for exist operatiion
* improve regression tests
fix it. Add macroses DatumGetNDBOX, PG_GETARG_NDBOX and PG_RETURN_NDBOX.
Backpatch for 8.2 too.
Previous versions use version 0 calling conventions. And fmgr code detoast
values for user-defined functions.
fixup various places in the tree that were clearing a StringInfo by hand.
Making this function a part of the API simplifies client code slightly,
and avoids needlessly peeking inside the StringInfo interface.
ways. I'm not totally sure that I caught everything, but at least now they pass
their regression tests with VARSIZE/SET_VARSIZE defined to reverse byte order.
Get rid of VARATT_SIZE and VARATT_DATA, which were simply redundant with
VARSIZE and VARDATA, and as a consequence almost no code was using the
longer names. Rename the length fields of struct varlena and various
derived structures to catch anyplace that was accessing them directly;
and clean up various places so caught. In itself this patch doesn't
change any behavior at all, but it is necessary infrastructure if we hope
to play any games with the representation of varlena headers.

where possible, and fix some sites that apparently thought that fgets()
will overwrite the buffer by one byte.
Also add some strlcpy() to eliminate some weird memory handling.
Standard English uses "may", "can", and "might" in different ways:
may - permission, "You may borrow my rake."
can - ability, "I can lift that log."
might - possibility, "It might rain today."
Unfortunately, in conversational English, their use is often mixed, as
in, "You may use this variable to do X", when in fact, "can" is a better
choice. Similarly, "It may crash" is better stated, "It might crash".
In this case extractQuery should returns -1 as nentries. This changes
prototype of extractQuery method to use int32* instead of uint32* for
nentries argument.
Based on that gincostestimate may see two corner cases: nothing will be found
or seqscan should be used.

PS tsearch_core patch should be sightly modified to support changes, but I'm
waiting a verdict about reviewing of tsearch_core patch.
suffix, to distinguish them from doubles. Make some function declarations
and definitions use the "const" qualifier for arguments consistently.
Ignore warning 4102 ("unreferenced label"), because such warnings
are always emitted by bison-generated code. Patch from Magnus Hagander.
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.)
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.

cases. Operator classes now exist within "operator families". While most
families are equivalent to a single class, related classes can be grouped
into one family to represent the fact that they are semantically compatible.
Cross-type operators are now naturally adjunct parts of a family, without
having to wedge them into a particular opclass as we had done originally.
This commit restructures the catalogs and cleans up enough of the fallout so
that everything still works at least as well as before, but most of the work
needed to actually improve the planner's behavior will come later. Also,
there are not yet CREATE/DROP/ALTER OPERATOR FAMILY commands; the only way
to create a new family right now is to allow CREATE OPERATOR CLASS to make
one by default. I owe some more documentation work, too. But that can all
be done in smaller pieces once this infrastructure is in place.
Previous versions aren't affected.
Fix synonym dictionary init: string should be malloc'ed, not palloc'ed. Bug
introduced recently while fixing lowerstr().
commutator operators, and mark hash-opclass members as oprcanhash.
This is a pretty ugly, brute-force solution, but it seems that getting
rid of all these redundant-looking operators would require some tweaks
in the core operator-resolution code to behave nicely, and I'm not
willing to risk that just before RC1.
Fix string's length calculation for recoding, fix strlower() to avoid wrong
assumption about length of recoded string (was: recoded string is no greater
that source, it may not true for multibyte encodings)
