any hardcoding of those options. Along the way, reorder the expression used to
calculate RELSEG_SIZE to make it slightly clearer. For now wal_segsize is only
allowed to have a value of 1 on Windows - we can relax that when we get full
large file support in the backend.
let XLOG_BLCKSZ and XLOG_SEG_SIZE be set via configure. Per a proposal by
Mark Wong, though I thought it better to call the switches after "wal" rather
than "xlog".
This has been the only documented and encouraged syntax for a long time, and
with extension facilities such as aliases being proposed, it is a good time to
clean up the legacy syntax a bit.

support for a nonsegmented mode from md.c. Per recent discussions, there
doesn't seem to be much value in a "never segment" option as opposed to
segmenting with a suitably large segment size. So instead provide a
configure-time switch to set the desired segment size in units of gigabytes.
While at it, expose a configure switch for BLCKSZ as well.

it vary with BLCKSZ as before. This agrees with what the documentation says,
and avoids a regression test problem when BLCKSZ is larger than default.
Per recent discussion.
a user-supplied TID is out of range for the relation. This is needed to
preserve compatibility with our pre-8.3 behavior, and it is sensible anyway
since if the query were implemented by brute force rather than optimized
into a TidScan, the behavior for a non-existent TID would be zero rows out,
never an error. Per gripe from Gurjeet Singh.
which is a global variable not a function, and so the probe failed on machines
where the linker makes a distinction (cf. Red Hat bug #444317). Probe for
an actual function instead.
do CancelBackup at a sane place, fix some oversights in the state transitions,
allow only superusers to connect while we are waiting for backup mode to end.
flags by separate AT_SetNotNull subcommands. That was always ugly and
inefficient, and it's now clear that it was merely a partial workaround
for the bug just identified in ATExecAddColumn. This is just code
beautification not a bug fix, so no back-patch.

checked to see if it's been initialized to all non-nulls. The implicit NOT
NULL constraint was not being checked during the ALTER (in fact, not even if
there was an explicit NOT NULL too), because ATExecAddColumn neglected to
set the flag needed to make the test happen. This has been broken since
the capability was first added, in 8.0.

have pg_ctl warn about this.
Cancel running online backups (by renaming the backup_label file,
thus rendering the backup useless) when shutting down in fast mode.

It was my mistake, I missed limitation of number of held locks, now GIN doesn't
use continiuous locks, but still hold buffers pinned to prevent interference
with vacuum's deletion algorithm.
Backpatch is needed.
