0fb864f166 Clean up major bogosity in description of creating a new index operator
class.  This chapter was apparently sewed together from several
inconsistent examples... and perhaps from old docs that no longer
apply at all.

39f69bc38f Start updating for the v7.0 release.
Use "generic functions" for math and other routines.
Use SQL92 "type 'literal'" syntax rather than Postgres "'literal'::type".

2dabd2cd1f Allow full type names in CREATE FUNCTION arguments and return type.
Move CREATE FUNCTION/WITH clause to end of statement to get around
 shift/reduce conflicts with type names containing "WITH".
Add lots of tokens as allowed ColId's and/or ColLabel's,
 so this should be a complete set for the v7.0 release.

0b96c6f4ae Change form of query which used "DISTINCT ON" to help support primary keys.
We still have an internal limit in the ODBC code of 8 columns per key,
 but this should lay the groundwork for resolving that.
Includes reformulated query from Tom Lane.

0a27641c1a nodeAgg has always been willing to accept an aggregate with a finalFunc
and only one transition state, but the CREATE AGGREGATE code rejected
this combination.

a7b8de40db Rearrange steps in recommended install procedure to something more
reasonable, ie configure and build first, then optionally run regress
tests using new parallel (non-installed) test method, and only then
backup and kill old installation.

d2684ea712 Attached is the regression diff for geometry, RedHat 6.1 on a Pentium
200 MMX. I was going through my e-mail, cleaning out my 1000+ message
inbox, and found this one.  Sorry.

0abebf0e7b Remove bogus complexity from build/install of plperl. This stuff was
apparently copied from the makefile for the perl5 interface module,
which needs it for reasons explained in src/interfaces/Makefile.
But none of those reasons apply to plperl.

5c462baebc transformCreateStmt should put Ident nodes, not ColumnDef nodes, into
keys lists of Constraint nodes.  This eliminates a type pun that would
probably have caused trouble someday, and eliminates circular references
in the parsetree that were causing trouble now.
Also, change parser's uses of strcasecmp() to strcmp().  Since scan.l
has downcased any unquoted identifier, it is never correct to check an
identifier with strcasecmp() in the parser.  For example,
	CREATE TABLE FOO (f1 int, UNIQUE("F1"));
was accepted, which is wrong, and xlateSqlFunc did more than it should:
select datetime();
ERROR:  Function 'timestamp()' does not exist
(good)
select "DateTime"();
ERROR:  Function 'timestamp()' does not exist
(bad)

eca02fee2c Rename bytea functions to not have upper-case letters in their names.
Clean up grotty coding in them, too.  AFAICS from the CVS logs, these
have been broken since Postgres95, so I'm not going to insist on an
initdb to fix them now...

0edcee3459 Fold PQsetenv working state into PGconn, rather than trying to maintain
it in a separate object.  There's no value in keeping the state separate,
and it creates dangling-pointer problems.  Also, remove PQsetenv routines
from public API, until and unless they are redesigned to have a safer
interface.  Since they were never part of the documented API before 7.0,
it's unlikely that anyone is calling them.

7177bbac29 A little further tweaking of the range-query selectivity logic:
to avoid undue sensitivity to roundoff error, believe that a zero
or slightly negative range estimate should represent a small
positive selectivity, rather than falling back on a generic default
estimate.

4ddc50dffa Hmm, absolute pathnames for the copy makes sense. I'll whip up that
patch in a second. Should be sufficent to just make sure the first
character is a '/', right?
