Thanks.
Attached is a patch against cvs tip as of 8:30 PM PST or so. Turned out
that even after fixing the failed hunks, there was a new spot in
bufmgr.c which needed to be fixed (related to temp relations;
RelationUpdateNumberOfBlocks). But thankfully the regression test code
caught it :-)

syscat.py scripts were both modified. pg.py uses it to cache a list of
pks (which is seemingly does for every db connection) and various
attributes. syscat uses it to walk the list of system tables and
queries the various attributes from these tables.
In both cases, it seemingly makes sense to apply what you've requested.

saw a fix offered up. Since I'm gearing up to use Postgres and Python
soon, I figured I'd have a hand at trying to get this sucker addressed.
Apologies if this has already been plugged. I looked in the archives
and never saw a response.
At any rate, I must admit I don't think I fully understand the
implications of some of the changes I made even though they appear to be
straight forward. We all know the devil is in the details. Anyone more
knowledgeable is requested to review my changes. :(
I also updated the advanced.py script in a somewhat nonsensical fashion
to make use of an int8 field in an effort to test this change. It seems
to run okay, however, this is by no means an all exhaustive test. So,
it's possible that a bumpy road may lay ahead for some. On the other
hand...overflows (hopefully) previously lurked (long -> int conversion).

Chapter 1. libpq - C Library
1.3. Command Execution Functions
1.3.3. Escaping binary strings for inclusion in SQL queries
I found the line
"The result string length does not include the terminating zero byte of the result."
is not right.
The result string length does indeed include the terminating zero byte.

Okay, I've attached an updated patch with more information on
SQL_INHERITANCE and inheritance behavior in prior releases.

snprintf() in contrib/. I didn't touch the places where pointer
arithmatic was being used, or other areas where the fix wasn't
trivial. I would think that few, if any, of the usages of sprintf()
were actually exploitable, but it's probably better to be paranoid...

PGPASSWORDFILE environment variable. I have modified libpq to make use
of this variable. I present the first cut here.
Currently the format for the file should be
host:port:database:user:password

CREATE DOMAIN newint as int4;
CREATE TABLE tab (col newint unique);
ERROR: data type newint has no default operator class for access method
"btree"
You must specify an operator class for the index or define a
default operator class for the data type
Specifically, GetDefaultOpClass() finds 0 exact matches and 3 binary
compatible matches. Fetching getBaseType() of the attribute fixes the
problem for domains (see attachment).

composite type capability makes it possible to create a system view
based on a table function in a way that is hopefully palatable to
everyone. The attached patch takes advantage of this, moving
show_all_settings() from contrib/tablefunc into the backend (renamed
all_settings(). It is defined as a builtin returning type RECORD. During
initdb a system view is created to expose the same information presently
available through SHOW ALL. For example:
test=# select * from pg_settings where name like '%debug%';
name | setting
-----------------------+---------
debug_assertions | on
debug_pretty_print | off
debug_print_parse | off
debug_print_plan | off
debug_print_query | off
debug_print_rewritten | off
wal_debug | 0
(7 rows)
Additionally during initdb two rules are created which make it possible
to change settings by updating the system view -- a "virtual table" as
Tom put it. Here's an example:

This concludes my changes that restructured the code to support JDBC3.
The jdbc unit tests were also resturctured to allow different tests between
jdbc2 and jdbc3, although currently make check (aka ant test) for JDBC3 just
runs the JDBC2 tests. Of special note the largeobject/PGblob and PGclob
classes have been moved under the jdbc2/jdbc3 specific directories as they
now differ by jdbc version. Also note that this checkin removes the
PostgresqlDataSource and files in the xa directory. A recent checkin has
added new datasource support that replaces the functionality provided by these
classes.

(note the added quotes to provide a little protection against spaces
and such). Then it's perfectly obvious what the calculation is doing.
I don't care about wasting 20-some bytes, but confusing readers of the

(they are not part of a chain). When failing to find a parent tuple in
an update chain, emit a warning and abandon repair_frag, but do not give
an error as before. This should eliminate the infamous 'No one parent tuple
was found' failure, which we now realize is not a can't-happen condition
but a perfectly valid database state. Per recent pghackers discussion.
heap_mark4update; this avoids situations where a deleted tuple might
look like it is chained to something else. Also, cause all the WAL
redo routines to set t_ctid to equal t_self, rather than leaving it
undefined as before. Make heap_xlog_clean set the page's LSN and SUI
correctly. All per past discussions in pghackers, ranging back to
last December.
to make a reasonable attempt at accounting for palloc overhead, not just
the requested size of each memory chunk. Since in many scenarios this
will make for a significant reduction in the amount of space acquired,
partially compensate by doubling the default value of SORT_MEM to 1Mb.
Per discussion in pgsql-general around 9-Jun-2002..
