This is no longer necessary or appropriate since we don't use zero typeid
as a wildcard anymore, and it fixes a nasty performance problem with
functions with many parameters. Per recent example from Reuven Lerner.
If they're not, the below causes problems, as the foreign key is added
after the CHECK. Cluster depends on the index name, so I thought it
wise to ensure all names are available, rather than leaving off the
CONSTRAINT "$n" portion for internally named constraints.
CREATE TABLE jkey (col integer primary key);
CREATE TABLE j (col integer REFERENCES jkey);
ALTER TABLE j ADD CHECK(col > 5);
This is a problem in 7.3 series as well as -Tip.

catalog lookups when not in a transaction. This prevents bizarre
failures if someone tries to set a value for session_authorization in
postgresql.conf. Per report from Fernando Nasser.
example from Rao Kumar. This is a very corner corner-case, requiring
a minimum of three closely-spaced database crashes and an unlucky
positioning of the second recovery's checkpoint record before you'd notice
any problem. But the consequences are dire enough that it's a must-fix.
dead xlog segments are not considered part of a critical section. It is
not necessary to force a database-wide panic if we get a failure in these
operations. Per recent trouble reports.
Per recent discussion on pgsql-general, this is appropriate for spec
compliance, and has the nice side-effect of easing porting from old
pg_dump files that exhibit the 59.999=>60.000 roundoff problem.
implementation limits, do not issue an ERROR; instead issue a NOTICE and use
the max supported value. Per pgsql-general discussion of 28-Apr, this is
needed to allow easy porting from pre-7.3 releases where the limits were
higher.
Unrelated change in same area: accept GLOBAL TEMP/TEMPORARY as a synonym
for TEMPORARY, as per pgsql-hackers discussion of 15-Apr. We previously
rejected it, but that was based on a misreading of the spec --- SQL92's
GLOBAL temp tables are really closer to what we have than their LOCAL ones.
per report from Olivier Prenant. Also fix off-by-one space calculation
in ReadToc; this woould not have hurt us until we had more than 100
dependencies for a single object, but wrong is wrong.
fixing an order by problem for index metadata results.
Also includes removing some unused code as well as a fix to the toString
method on statement.

account for NULLs; in hindsight this is obvious since the code for
the MCV-lists case would reduce to this when there are zero entries
in both lists. Per example from Alec Mitchell.
