still looking at the best way to integrate Tom Vijlbrief's fixes
(insofar as they're still needed); would 7.2 be a suitable time for
incompatible API changes?

Changes:
(*) Introduced bool, true, false (replacing some int, 1, 0)
(*) Made some member functions const
(*) Documented GetIsNull()
(*) Marked DisplayTuples() and PrintTuples() as obsolescent; fixed possible
portability problem (assumed that NULL pointer equals all-zero bit pattern)
(*) PrintTuples(): renamed width parameter to fillAlign to conform with other
usage; fixed memory leak and compile issue w.r.t. field separator (should
also slightly improve performance)
(*) Fixed some minor compilation issues
(*) Moved "using namespace std;" out of headers, where they didn't belong; used
new (temporary) preprocessor macro PGSTD to do this
(*) Made ToString() static, removed unneeded memset(), made buffer size adapt
to sizeof(int)
(*) Made some constructors explicit
(*) Changed some const std::string & parameters to plain std::string
(*) Marked PgCursor::Cursor(std::string) as obsolescent (setter with same name
as getter--bad style)
(*) Renamed some paramaters previously named "string"
(*) Introduced size_type typedef for number of tuples in result set
(*) PgTransaction now supports re-opening after closing, and aborts if not
explicitly committed prior to destruction

Initdb help correction
Changed end/abort to commit/rollback and changed related notices
Commented out way old printing functions in libpq
Fixed a typo in alter table / alter column
PgDatabase::DisplayTuples and PgDatabase::PrintTuples. This is incorrect
according to strict interpretation of the C++ spec, and some compilers
will reject it. Also silence g++ warning about unused parameter.

It will all need to be checked in. I used the char *rcsid[] method for
cvs ids so it can be strings | grep'd to find version numbers. The new
version for the library is 3.0.
Run configure from src/ to create the Makefile and it should be good to
go.
I did minimal documentation references in the README, I'll see if I can
get something to Tom Lockhart rather quickly.
