Previously NULL nodes were ignored. This could cause issues where the computed query ID could match for queries where fields that are next to each other in their Node struct where one field was NULL and the other non-NULL. For example, the Query struct had distinctClause and sortClause next to each other. If someone wrote; SELECT DISTINCT c1 FROM t; and then; SELECT c1 FROM t ORDER BY c1; these would produce the same query ID since, in the first query, we ignored the NULL sortClause and appended the jumble bytes for the distictClause. In the latter query, since we did nothing for the NULL distinctClause then jumble the non-NULL sortClause, and since the node representation stored is the same in both cases, the query IDs were identical. Here we fix this by always accounting for NULL nodes by recording that we saw a NULL in the jumble buffer. This fixes the issue as the order that the NULL is recorded isn't the same in the above two queries.

The PostgreSQL contrib tree --------------------------- This subtree contains porting tools, analysis utilities, and plug-in features that are not part of the core PostgreSQL system, mainly because they address a limited audience or are too experimental to be part of the main source tree. This does not preclude their usefulness. User documentation for each module appears in the main SGML documentation. When building from the source distribution, these modules are not built automatically, unless you build the "world" target. You can also build and install them all by running "make all" and "make install" in this directory; or to build and install just one selected module, do the same in that module's subdirectory. Some directories supply new user-defined functions, operators, or types. To make use of one of these modules, after you have installed the code you need to register the new SQL objects in the database system by executing a CREATE EXTENSION command. In a fresh database, you can simply do CREATE EXTENSION module_name; See the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this procedure.
