regression tests so I prepared a set of expected
files to make things look OK.
There's also a file to account for minor variations
in the geopmetry output and a resultmap patch to
pull them all together.
With these changes PostgreSQL, from CVS, builds and
regression tests (runcheck) cleanly.

Initdb help correction
Changed end/abort to commit/rollback and changed related notices
Commented out way old printing functions in libpq
Fixed a typo in alter table / alter column
SELECT DISTINCT ON (expr [, expr ...]) targetlist ...
and there is a check to make sure that the user didn't specify an ORDER BY
that's incompatible with the DISTINCT operation.
Reimplement nodeUnique and nodeGroup to use the proper datatype-specific
equality function for each column being compared --- they used to do
bitwise comparisons or convert the data to text strings and strcmp().
(To add insult to injury, they'd look up the conversion functions once
for each tuple...) Parse/plan representation of DISTINCT is now a list
of SortClause nodes.
initdb forced by querytree change...
pghackers discussion of 5-Jan-2000. The amopselect and amopnpages
estimators are gone, and in their place is a per-AM amcostestimate
procedure (linked to from pg_am, not pg_amop).
fact the same, so I suggest they could be the same file say
geometry-positive-zeros.out, as the main difference seems to be not printing
eg. (0,-0). In src/test/regress/expected, I propose
rm int2-i386-netbsd.out int4-i386-netbsd.out
mv geometry-hppa1.1.out geometry-positive-zeros.out
rm geometry-hppa2.0.out geometry-i386-netbsd.out
and the following patch to resultmap. I have only tested the netbsd results
on i386, but think that in all probability the differences will be the same
for other ports. If it turns out not to be the case, at least we might find
out.

from a constraint condition does not violate the constraint (cf. discussion
on pghackers 12/9/99). Implemented by adding a parameter to ExecQual,
specifying whether to return TRUE or FALSE when the qual result is
really NULL in three-valued boolean logic. Currently, ExecRelCheck is
the only caller that asks for TRUE, but if we find any other places that
have the wrong response to NULL, it'll be easy to fix them.
Instead of hard-wiring one result file per platform, there is a map file
'resultmap' that says which one to use --- a lot like template/.similar.
I have only created entries in resultmap for my own platform (HPUX) so
far; feel free to add lines for other platforms.
which is broken in some weird way that I don't understand. I think it
may be exposing a bug in the new psql --- for one thing, I get different
results when I run psql by hand than the regress script gets. What
the heck???
