original table ('OLD' table) in its join tree if OLD is referenced by
either the rule action, the rule qual, or the original query qual that
will be added to the rule action. However, we only want one instance
of the original table to be included; so beware of the possibility that
the rule action already has a jointree entry for OLD.
rather than coredumping (as prior 7.1 code did) or silently dropping the
condition (as 7.0 did). This is annoying but there doesn't seem to be
any good way to fix it, short of a major querytree restructuring.

4567890123456789 can be converted to float without loss; since that's
52 bits, it's on the hairy edge of failing with IEEE float8s, and indeed
rint seems to give platform-dependent results for it.

to the use of getpwuid when running in standalone mode.
this patch allocates some persistent storage (using
strdup) to store the username obtained with getpwuid
in src/backend/main/main.c. this is necessary because
later on, getpwuid is called again (in ValidateBinary).
the man pages for getpwuid on SCO OpenServer, FreeBSD,
and Darwin all have words to this effect (this is from
the SCO OpenServer man page):
Note
====
All information is contained in a static area, so it must
be copied if it is to be saved. Otherwise, it may be
overwritten on subsequent calls to these routines.
in particular, on my platform, the storage used to hold
the pw_name from the first call is overwritten such that
it looks like an empty username. this causes a problem
later on in SetSessionUserIdFromUserName.
i'd assume this isn't a problem on most platforms because
getpwuid is called with the same UID both times, and the
same thing ends up happening to that static storage each
time. however, that's not guaranteed, and is _not_ what
happens on my platform (at least :).

than forcing 'plain'. This probably does not matter right now, but I
think it needs to be consistent with the regular (not-functional) index
case, where attstorage is copied from the underlying table. Clean up
some other dead and infelicitous code too.
Op, so that the sequence 'a_expr Op Op a_expr' will be parsed as
a_expr Op (Op a_expr) not (a_expr Op) Op a_expr as formerly. In other
words, prefer treating user-defined operators as prefix operators to
treating them as postfix operators, when there is an ambiguity.
Also clean up a couple of other infelicities in production priority
assignment --- for example, BETWEEN wasn't being given the intended
priority, but that of AND.
bothering to check the return value --- which meant that in case the
update or delete failed because of a concurrent update, you'd not find
out about it, except by observing later that the transaction produced
the wrong outcome. There are now subroutines simple_heap_update and
simple_heap_delete that should be used anyplace that you're not prepared
to do the full nine yards of coping with concurrent updates. In
practice, that seems to mean absolutely everywhere but the executor,
because *noplace* else was checking.
attributes in a FieldSelect node --- all the places that manipulate
these work just fine with system attribute numbers. OK, it's a new
feature, so shoot me ...
eliminates a raft of portability issues, including whether sys_nerr
exists, whether the platform has any valid negative errnos, etc. The
downside is minimal: errno shouldn't ever contain an invalid value anyway,
and if it does, reasonably modern versions of strerror will not choke.
This rangecheck idea seemed good at the time, but it's clearly a net loss,
and I apologize to all concerned for having ever put it in.
rewrite of deadlock checking. Lock holder objects are now reachable from
the associated LOCK as well as from the owning PROC. This makes it
practical to find all the processes holding a lock, as well as all those
waiting on the lock. Also, clean up some of the grottier aspects of the
SHMQueue API, and cause the waitProcs list to be stored in the intuitive
direction instead of the nonintuitive one. (Bet you didn't know that
the code followed the 'prev' link to get to the next waiting process,
instead of the 'next' link. It doesn't do that anymore.)
here is the patch attached which do check in each BLOB operation, if we are
in transaction, and raise an error otherwise. This will prevent such mistakes.

of c.h altogether, and putting it into the only places that use it
(elog.c and exc.c), instead. Modify these routines to check for a
NULL or empty-string return from strerror, too, since some platforms
define strerror to return empty string for unknown errors (what a useless
definition that is ...). Clean up some cruft in ExcPrint while at it.
mixed-signs. Previous effort left way too many minus signs, and was at
least as broken as the one before that :(
Clean up "ISO-style" time interval representation to omit zero fields if
there is at least one non-zero field. Supress some leading plus signs
when not necessary for clarity.
Replace every #ifdef __CYGWIN__ block with a cleaner TIMEZONE_GLOBAL macro
defined in datetime.h.
try to push restrictions on the view down into the view subquery,
so that they can become indexscan quals or what-have-you rather than
being applied at the top level of the subquery. 7.0 and before were
able to do this, though in a much klugier way, and I'd hate to have
anyone complaining that 7.1 is stupider than 7.0 ...
