47065aec11 I'm attaching those diffs for the Reference Guide in a tar file, as
not all of them attached properly in the post I made a few minutes
ago. Please disregard those earlier files. The diffs in the tar file
replace them.

9c9936587c Implement COMMIT_SIBLINGS parameter to allow pre-commit delay to occur
only if at least N other backends currently have open transactions.  This
is not a great deal of intelligence about whether a delay might be
profitable ... but it beats no intelligence at all.  Note that the default
COMMIT_DELAY is still zero --- this new code does nothing unless that
setting is changed.
Also, mark ENABLEFSYNC as a system-wide setting.  It's no longer safe to
allow that to be set per-backend, since we may be relying on some other
backend's fsync to have synced the WAL log.

c3b00e7e29 Add --template option to createdb script to allow access to WITH TEMPLATE

will not mess up the tests.

48d03278a2 Enhance documentation of date/time functions. Add extract, current_date,
current_time, current_timestamp.  Add more examples.  Remove age(), because
it doesn't work like it is documented, and no one could explain it to me.

kind of join semantics.

d42d31e78e Alter documentation of boolean type, add example. Someone figured that it
wasn't clear that the "boolean type" was actually called "boolean".  Add
tip about "casting" booleans using CASE.

Spell check whole file.
