pointers to data that will be changed by any later call to setlocale.
Must copy what they return to be sure we get the right answer.
Karel Zak, further tweaks by Tom Lane.
for any other purpose than PGLC_localeconv()'s internal save/restore of
locale settings. Fix cash.c to call PGLC_localeconv() rather than
making a direct call to localeconv() --- the old way, if PGLC_localeconv()
had already cached a locale result, it would be overwritten by the first
cash_in or cash_out operation, leading to wrong-locale results later.
Probably no demonstrable bug today, since we only appear to be looking
at the LC_MONETARY results which should be the same anyway, but definitely
a gotcha waiting to strike.
- full support for IW (ISO week) and vice versa conversion for IW too
(the to_char 'week' support is now complete and I hope correct).
Thomas, I use for IW code from timestamp.c, for this I create separate
function date2isoweek() from original 'case DTK_WEEK:' code in the
timestamp_part(). I mean will better use one code for same feature in
date_part() and in to_char(). The isoweek2date() is added to timestamp.c
too. Right?
IMHO in 7.1 will all to_char's features complete. It is cca 41 templates
for date/time and cca 21 for numbers.
* to_ascii:
- gcc, is it correct now? :-)
In the patch is documentation for to_char's IW and for to_ascii().

The PostgreSQL's to_char() is very compatible with Oracle's to_char
now. I hope that to_char's 3000 rows of source is without bugs, but
will good if anyone test it, for me it works very well :-)
