...
"incompatibilities" section of the release notes.

Repair CLUSTER failure after ALTER TABLE SET WITHOUT OIDS. Turns out
...
there are corner cases involving dropping toasted columns in which the
previous coding would fail, too: the new version of the table might not
have any TOAST table, but we'd still propagate possibly-wide values of
dropped columns forward.

Fix bit-rot in ipc_test.c; it didn't include some stuff that pg_shmem.c
...
now depends on.

12179c99b1
Marginal hack to merge adjacent ReleaseBuffer/ReadBuffer calls into
...
ReleaseAndReadBuffer during GIST index searches. We already did this
in btree and rtree, might as well do it here too.

11635c3f6f
Refactor some duplicated code in lock.c: create UnGrantLock(), move code
...
from LockRelease() and LockReleaseAll() into it. From Heikki Linnakangas.

ee467c3530
Fix minor thinko in logic to set dump order when dumping from a pre-7.3
...
database: aggregates should be dumped in the same pass as operators,
not in the same pass as functions.

Ensure that all details of the ARC algorithm are hidden within freelist.c.
...
This refactoring does not change any algorithms or data structures, just
remove visibility of the ARC datastructures from other source files.

fffb5819ca
Adjust constant-folding of CASE expressions so that the simple comparison
...
form of CASE (eg, CASE 0 WHEN 1 THEN ...) can be constant-folded as it
was in 7.4. Also, avoid constant-folding result expressions that are
certainly unreachable --- the former coding was a bit cavalier about this
and could generate unexpected results for all-constant CASE expressions.
Add regression test cases. Per report from Vlad Marchenko.

and Tom Lane.

Adjust estimate_num_groups() to not clamp per-relation group count
...
estimate to less than the number of values estimated for any one grouping
Var, as suggested by Manfred. This is intuitively right, and what's
more it puts the plan choices in the subselect regression test back the
way they were before ...

Adjust plpgsql to allow assignment to an element of an array that is
...
initially NULL. For 8.0 we changed the main executor to have this
behavior in an UPDATE of an array column, but plpgsql's equivalent case
was overlooked. Per report from Sven Willenberger.
