allowed different processes to have different addresses for the shmem segment
in quite a long time, but there were still a few places left that used the
old coding convention. Clean them up to reduce confusion and improve the
compiler's ability to detect pointer type mismatches.

Also performed an initial run through of upgrading our Copyright date to
extend to 2005 ... first run here was very simple ... change everything
where: grep 1996-2004 && the word 'Copyright' ... scanned through the
generated list with 'less' first, and after, to make sure that I only
picked up the right entries ...
copying into a fixed-size buffer (in this case, a buffer of
NAMEDATALEN bytes). AFAICT nothing to worry about here, but worth
fixing anyway...

o Change all current CVS messages of NOTICE to WARNING. We were going
to do this just before 7.3 beta but it has to be done now, as you will
see below.
o Change current INFO messages that should be controlled by
client_min_messages to NOTICE.
o Force remaining INFO messages, like from EXPLAIN, VACUUM VERBOSE, etc.
to always go to the client.
o Remove INFO from the client_min_messages options and add NOTICE.
Seems we do need three non-ERROR elog levels to handle the various
behaviors we need for these messages.
Regression passed.
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.)
