Some more supported-platforms updates: buildfarm hare is alive again,

Document the recently-understood hazard that a rollback can release row-level

locks that logically should not be released, because when a subtransaction
overwrites XMAX all knowledge of the previous lock state is lost. It seems
unlikely that we will be able to fix this before 8.3...

Adjust the description of locking to clarify that locks held by a

subtransaction are released if the subtransaction aborts --- in user-level
terminology, this means either rolling back to a savepoint or escaping from
a plpgsql exception block. Per recent suggestion from Simon.

Change pg_stat_all_tables and sister views to put the recently-added
...
vacuum/analyze timestamp columns at the end, rather than at a random
spot in the middle as in the original patch. This was deemed more usable
as well as less likely to break existing application code. initdb forced
accordingly. In passing, remove former kluge for initializing
pg_stat_file()'s pg_proc entry --- bootstrap mode was fixed recently
so that this can be done without any hacks, but I overlooked this usage.

I noticed that the Partitioning section of the docs has *two* sections

of caveats in different places, but close together. One called caveats,
