arrays

been applied. The patches are in the .tar.gz attachment at the end:
varchar-array.patch this patch adds support for arrays of bpchar() and
varchar(), which where always missing from postgres.
These datatypes can be used to replace the _char4,
_char8, etc., which were dropped some time ago.
block-size.patch this patch fixes many errors in the parser and other
program which happen with very large query statements
(> 8K) when using a page size larger than 8192.
This patch is needed if you want to submit queries
larger than 8K. Postgres supports tuples up to 32K
but you can't insert them because you can't submit
queries larger than 8K. My patch fixes this problem.
The patch also replaces all the occurrences of `8192'
and `1<<13' in the sources with the proper constants
defined in include files. You should now never find
8192 hardwired in C code, just to make code clearer.

to save a little bit of backend startup time. This way, the first
backend started after a VACUUM will rebuild the init file with up-to-date
statistics for the critical system indexes.
it failed to cover the case where high bits of char are 100 or 101.
Not sure if fix is right, but it agrees with pg_utf_mblen ... and it
doesn't lock up ...

libpq call. This solves problems with NOTICE and ERROR messages generated
in the middle of a data message or COPY OUT operation.
instead of doing a kill(self, SIGQUIT) and expecting the signal handler
to do it. Also, clean up inconsistent definitions of the sigjmp buffer
in the several files that already referenced it.

expression context (ie, not at the top level of a WHERE clause). Examples
like this one work now:

(value/(SELECT AVG(value) FROM t1 WHERE name = touter.name)) > 0.75;
delete the default argument from the node. This prevents the executor
from spitting up on the untransformed argument expression. Typical
failure was:

MyProcPid global variable is set to 0 when postgres starts as a command
(not as a backend daemon). This leads issuing SIGQUIT to the process group,
not the process itself. As a result, parent sh gets core dumped in the
Wisconsin benchmark test.
rather than reusing the input storage.
Also made the same fix to int8smaller(), though there wasn't a symptom,
and went through and verified that other pass-by-reference data types
do the same thing. Not an issue for the by-value types.
