node of a SubLink or SubPlan testexpr field. Bug resulted from replacing
the old lefthand/exprs list fields with a simple expression field, and not
remembering that expression_tree_walker is coded to save a few cycles by
recursing directly to self on list fields (on the assumption the walker
isn't interested in List nodes per se). On non-list fields it must of
course call the walker. Possibly that hack isn't worth the risk of more
such bugs, but I'll leave it be for now. Per bug report from James Robinson.
outer joins. Originally it was only looking for overlap of the righthand
side of a left join, but we have to do it on the lefthand side too.

scenarios. With multiple clinets, only the first client got the right
scaling factor and this gave a illusion of better performance in case
of the scaling factor greater than 1.

been observed to cause failure to bind the stats collection socket, and
could perhaps cause other issues too. Per reports from Brad Nicholson

remove. Per gripe from Jon Lapham and subsequent discussion of 27-Sep.
timezone actually has a daylight-savings rule. This avoids breaking
cases that used to work because they went through the DecodePosixTimezone
code path. Per contrib regression failures (mea culpa for not running
those yesterday...). Also document the already-applied change to allow
GMT offsets up to 14 hours.
input routines. Remove the former "DecodePosixTimezone" function in favor of
letting the zic code handle POSIX-style zone specs (see tzparse()). In
particular this means that "PST+3" now means the same as "-03", whereas it
used to mean "-11" --- the zone abbreviation is effectively just a noise word
in this syntax. Make sure that all named and POSIX-style zone names will be
parsed as a single token. Fix long-standing bogosities in printing and input
of fractional-hour timezone offsets (since the tzparse() code will accept
these, we'd better make 'em work). Also correct an error in the original
coding of the zic-zone-name patch: in "timestamp without time zone" input,
zone names are supposed to be allowed but ignored, but the coding was such
that the zone changed the interpretation anyway.
