re-adopt these settings at every postmaster or standalone-backend startup.
This should fix problems with indexes becoming corrupt due to failure to
provide consistent locale environment for postmaster at all times. Also,
refuse to start up a non-locale-enabled compilation in a database originally
initdb'd with a non-C locale. Suppress LIKE index optimization if locale
is not "C" or "POSIX" (are there any other locales where it's safe?).
Issue NOTICE during initdb if selected locale disables LIKE optimization.
it fixing Y,YY,YYY,YYYY conversion, the docs and regress tests update
are included too.
During the patch testing I found small bug in miscadmin.h in
convertstr() declaration. Here it's fixed too.

Makes sense. Here's a new patch, now the output even looks better:

rather than just being aliases for int4in/int4out. Give type Oid a
full set of comparison operators that do proper unsigned comparison,
instead of reusing the int4 comparators. Since pg_dump is now doing
unsigned comparisons of OIDs, it is now *necessary* that we play by
the rules here. In fact, given that btoidcmp() has been doing unsigned
comparison for quite some time, it seems likely that we have index-
corruption problems in 7.0 and before once the Oid counter goes past
2G. Fixing these operators is a necessary step before we can think
about 8-byte Oid, too.
new separate relkind for views (per some discussion back in September).
I didn't force initdb, but rules regress test will show differences
until you do one.
