there's a paragraph in the ALTER TABLE reference page that reads:
...
DROP CONSTRAINT
This form drops constraints on a table. Currently, constraints on tables
are not required to have unique names, so there may be more than one
constraint matching the specified name. All matching constraints will be
dropped.
To my knowledge, it is no longer possible to create constraints with the
same name for the same relation. When you create a constraint and specify
the same name explictly, an error is raised. Implicit constraint creation
won't choose an existing name either and up to now you could not rename a
constraint. Renaming works with the patch I sent in a few hours ago but this
patch as well won't allow constraints with identical names on the same
relation.
The attached patch thus removes the note in the docs.

Since my name has a non-ascii-letter in it, it's often spelled wrong. In
...
the latest release notes there is a latin1 character that shouldn't be
there so I made a patch to fix that. This patch also fixes some old
entries that uses o instead of ö (which is also wrong but not as
bad as including a latin1 character in the sgml file).

Allow to_char(interval) and to_char(time) to use AM/PM specifications.
...
Map them to a single day, so '30 hours' is 'AM'.
Have to_char(interval) and to_char(time) use "HH", "HH12" as 12-hour
intervals, rather than bypass and print the full interval hours. This
is neeeded because to_char(time) is mapped to interval in this function.
Intervals should use "HH24", and document suggestion.
Allow "D" format specifiers for interval/time.
