change saves a great deal of space in pg_proc and its primary index,
and it eliminates the former requirement that INDEX_MAX_KEYS and
FUNC_MAX_ARGS have the same value. INDEX_MAX_KEYS is still embedded
in the on-disk representation (because it affects index tuple header
size), but FUNC_MAX_ARGS is not. I believe it would now be possible
to increase FUNC_MAX_ARGS at little cost, but haven't experimented yet.
There are still a lot of vestigial references to FUNC_MAX_ARGS, which
I will clean up in a separate pass. However, getting rid of it
altogether would require changing the FunctionCallInfoData struct,
and I'm not sure I want to buy into that.
-It fixes up some bugs with handling setval calls
-Adds upgrade instructions from prior versions
-Improved the sample config file
-Fixed some things in the clean_pending script
1. Fixed bug where sequences were being mirrored incorrectly if they
exceeded 127
2. Fixed a bug in the perl script with mirroring sequences(John
Burtenshaw sent an email to patches describing the bug in March but I
htink he forgot to attach his patch)
3. The dates/times in the transaction files will always use 2 digits.

causing the postmaster to crash when the trigger was running on a table
without a primary key.
I've also updated the docs to explicitly say that tables need primary
keys.
