1973971821 Per a brief conversation with Tom, I've created a patch for adding
support for 'week' within the date_trunc function.

Within the patch I added a couple of test cases and associated target
output, and changed the documentation to add 'week' appropriately.

2146bfc869 Emit a warning when an empty string is input to the oid, float4, and
float8 types. This begins the deprecation of this feature: in 7.6,
this input will be rejected.

Also added a new error code for warnings about deprecated features,
and updated the regression tests.

0b1f7cccd7 The trim function doc did not say that the second argument could be
be omitted. This patch fixes that. It also fixes a bug where the
type text was not wrapped as <type>text</type>.

f83356c7f5 Do a direct probe during postmaster startup to determine the maximum
number of openable files and the number already opened.  This eliminates
depending on sysconf(_SC_OPEN_MAX), and allows much saner behavior on
platforms where open-file slots are used up by semaphores.

Neil Conway
ee33fe889e Significant improvements to the documentation for the new cost-based
vacuum delay feature, including updating the docs for Tom's recent
improvements. There is still more work to be done here: for example,
adding some more information on the practical use of cost-based
vacuum delay to the "maintenance" section would probably be a good
idea.

f0c9397f80 First steps towards statistics on expressional (nee functional) indexes.
This commit teaches ANALYZE to store such stats in pg_statistic, but
nothing is done yet about teaching the planner to use 'em.
Also, repair longstanding oversight in separate ANALYZE command: it
updated the pg_class.relpages and reltuples counts for the table proper,
but not for indexes.

someone asked me about the FK deadlock fix, mentioned in the 7.3.3
release notes as 3rd change:

Actually, that fix was available with 7.4, not 7.3. Don't know if we can
retroactively change the release-notes though.

A better workaround for the sentence would be something like:

        "and it also happens that the user always has permission"

Looks easier to read, I think.

391c3811a2 Rename SortMem and VacuumMem to work_mem and maintenance_work_mem.
Make btree index creation and initial validation of foreign-key constraints
use maintenance_work_mem rather than work_mem as their memory limit.
Add some code to guc.c to allow these variables to be referenced by their
old names in SHOW and SET commands, for backwards compatibility.
