Array input now considers only plain ASCII whitespace characters
to be potentially ignorable; it will never ignore non-ASCII characters,
even if they are whitespace according to some locales (Tom Lane)
</para>
<para>
This avoids some corner cases where array values could be interpreted
differently depending on the server's locale settings.

Custom typanalyze functions should no longer rely on
<structname>VacAttrStats</>.<structfield>attr</> to determine the type
of data they will be passed (Tom Lane)
</para>
<para>
This was changed to allow collection of statistics on index columns
for which the storage type is different from the underlying column
data type. There are new fields that tell the actual datatype being
analyzed.
