of days --- it was emitting stuff like
REVOKE ALL on 'table' from PUBLIC; GRANT ALL on "table" to
"Public"; neither of which work. While I was at it I
cleaned up a few other things:
* \connect commands are issued only in -z mode. In this way,
reloading a pg_dump script made without -z will generate a simple
database wholly owned by the invoking user, rather than a mishmash
of tables owned by various people but lacking in access rights.
(Analogy: cp versus cp -p.)
* \connect commands are issued just before COPY FROM stdin commands;
without this, reloading a database containing non-world-writable
tables tended to fail because the COPY was not necessarily attempted
as the table owner.
* Redundant \connect commands are suppressed (each one costs a
backend launch, so...).
* Man page updated (-z wasn't ever documented).
The first two items were discussed in a pgsql-hackers thread around
6 May 98 ("An item for the TODO list: pg_dump and multiple table
owners") but no one had bothered to deal with 'em yet.

I have implemented a framework of encoding translation between the
backend and the frontend. Also I have added a new variable setting
command:
SET CLIENT_ENCODING TO 'encoding';
Other features include:
Latin1 support more 8 bit cleaness
See doc/README.mb for more details. Note that the pacthes are
against May 30 snapshot.

syntax that can be read back in with psql. I did this by adding
a
"-c" switch that controls moving the CONTSTRAINT statements inside
the CREATE TABLE statements and adding () around the CHECK arguments.
Here's diffs against the 6.3.2 version of pg_dump.c.
ccb
yyerror ones from bison. It also includes a few 'enhancements' to
the C programming style (which are, of course, personal).
The other patch removes the compilation of backend/lib/qsort.c, as
qsort() is a standard function in stdlib.h and can be used any
where else (and it is). It was only used in
backend/optimizer/geqo/geqo_pool.c, backend/optimizer/path/predmig.c,
and backend/storage/page/bufpage.c

There's more to come. Please review these patches. I ran the
regression tests and they only failed where this was expected
(random, geo, etc).

varchar length.
Cleans up code so attlen is always length.
Removed varchar() hack added earlier.
Will fix bug in selecting varchar() fields, and varchar() can be
variable length.
src. It is in the function ParseACL. When I find that I
can not allocate enough memory for the ACL structure I
return an NULL instead of doing an exit_nicely(g_conn);

Clean up formatting of code
Integrate new functions into dumpTable
This is not tested yet...have to recompile server due to patches from
Todd...but this compiles cleanly as it stands now
