contrib/contrib-global.mk library and _generally_ behave like
Makefiles for other contrib modules.
Besides it fixes Perl's interpolation of $libdir variable, which
should be passed to backend instead. This patch is done against
PostgreSQL 7.3b2
Besides, I want to thank Peter Eisentraut for his very friendly and
helpful attitude and politely ask him to check whether contrib
modules actually continue to work after he implements another
major change to their build process.

Attached is a patch to fix the mb linking problems on AIX. As a nice side effect
it reduces the duplicate symbol warnings to linking libpq.so and libecpg.so
(all shlibs that are not postmaster loadable modules).
Please apply to current (only affects AIX).
The _LARGE_FILES problem is unfortunately still open, unless Peter
has fixed it per his recent idea.

Nah. I don't think it's worth it: I had forgotten that older versions
should be supported. I just left the code as is and added a
version-specific test.
This patch allows pg_dump to dump correctly local definition of columns.
In particular,
CREATE TABLE p1 (f1 int, f2 int);
CREATE TABLE p2 (f1 int);
CREATE TABLE c () INHERITS (p1, p2);
ALTER TABLE ONLY p1 DROP COLUMN f1;
CREATE TABLE p3 (f1 int);
CREATE TABLE c2 (f1 int) INHERITS (p3);
Will be dumped as
CREATE TABLE p1 (f2 int);
CREATE TABLE p2 (f1 int);
CREATE TABLE c (f1 int) INHERITS (p1, p2);
CREATE TABLE c2 (f1 int) INHERITS (p3);
(Previous version will dump
CREATE TABLE c () INHERITS (p1, p2)
CREATE TABLE c2 () INHERITS (p3) )

into postgres.c; make sure it happens for all cases that seem to need it.
Perhaps it would be better to explicitly exclude just a few utility
statement types from setting a snapshot?
in our write/flush operation any WAL entries that got queued while we
were waiting to get the WALWriteLock. This improves throughput when
transactions are small enough that several can be committed per WAL
write (ie, per disk revolution).

binary-equivalenced match as to typlen, typbyval, and typalign; if
they don't then it's surely a mistake to equivalence them.
just the significant fields of FunctionCallInfoData, rather than MemSet'ing
the whole struct to zero. Unused positions in the arg[] array will
thereby contain garbage rather than zeroes. This buys back some of the
performance hit from increasing FUNC_MAX_ARGS. Also tweak tuplesort.c
code for more speed by marking some routines 'inline'. All together
these changes speed up simple sorts, like count(distinct int4column),
by about 25% on a P4 running RH Linux 7.2.

Good point. Thank you Masaru for the suggested fix.
Attached is a patch to fix the bug found by Masaru. His example now
produces:
regression=# SELECT * FROM connectby('connectby_tree', 'keyid',
'parent_keyid', '11', 0, '-') AS t(keyid int, parent_keyid int, level
int,
branch text);
keyid | parent_keyid | level | branch
-------+--------------+-------+----------
11 | | 0 | 11
10 | 11 | 1 | 11-10
111 | 11 | 1 | 11-111
1 | 111 | 2 | 11-111-1
(4 rows)
While making the patch I also realized that the "no show branch" form of
the function was not going to work very well for recursion detection.
Therefore there is now a default branch delimiter ('~') that is used
internally, for that case, to enable recursion detection to work. If
you need a different delimiter for your specific data, you will have to
use the "show branch" form of the function.

client
utilities (libpq.dll and psql.exe) for win32 (missing defines,
adjustments to
includes, pedantic casting, non-existent functions) per:
http://developer.postgresql.org/docs/postgres/install-win32.html.
It compiles cleanly under Windows 2000 using Visual Studio .net. Also
compiles clean and passes all regression tests (regular and contrib)
under Linux.
In addition to a review by the usual suspects, it would be very
desirable for someone well versed in the peculiarities of win32 to take
a look.

be able to do that, but the ability seems to have got lost in the
shuffle). Add a -o nextOID switch for completeness. Improve the
documentation to explain how and why to use these switches.
