6d3985b46e Drop indentation of verbatim environments in print output. This increased
the build time by what seemed like infinity.

bef92dadb0 Fix planner to do the right thing when a degenerate outer join (one whose
joinclause doesn't use any outer-side vars) requires a "bushy" plan to be
created.  The normal heuristic to avoid joins with no joinclause has to be
overridden in that case.  Problem is new in 8.2; before that we forced the
outer join order anyway.  Per example from Teodor.

chapter rather than scattering them across several incomplete fragments.

3647ff3b3a Avoid double free of _SPI_current->tuptable. AtEOSubXact_SPI() now tries to
release it in a subtransaction abort, but this neglects possibility that
someone outside SPI already did.  Fix is for spi.c to forget about a tuptable
as soon as it's handed it back to the caller.
Per bug #2817 from Michael Andreen.

373bd34e73 Repair incorrect placement of WHERE clauses when there are multiple,
rearrangeable outer joins and the WHERE clause is non-strict and mentions
only nullable-side relations.  New bug in 8.2, caused by new logic to allow
rearranging outer joins.  Per bug #2807 from Ross Cohen; thanks to Jeff
Davis for producing a usable test case.

f07f11efde Fix planning of SubLinks to ensure that Vars generated from transformation of
a sublink's test expression have the correct vartypmod, rather than defaulting
to -1.  There's at least one place where this is important because we're
expecting these Vars to be exactly equal() to those appearing in the subplan
itself.  This is a pretty klugy solution --- it would likely be cleaner to
change Param nodes to include a typmod field --- but we can't do that in the
already-released 8.2 branch.
Per bug report from Hubert Fongarnand.

e1bfa1869f Patch of Win32 Encoding problem for server messages using
FormatMessage() (This should have been in 8.2.0, patched to 8.2.X and
HEAD):

I think this problem to be complex....
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2006-11/msg00042.php

FormatMessage of windows cannot consider the encoding of the database.
However, I should try the solution now. It is necessary to clear the
problem.

Multi character-code exists together in message and log. It doesn't
consider
the data base encoding that the user intended....

The user in multi-byte country can try this.
http://inet.winpg.jp/~saito/pg_bug/MessageCheck.c

That is, it is likely to become it in this manner.(Japanese)

7f676624f6 Fix LIMIT/OFFSET for null limit values. This worked before 8.2 but was broken
by the change to make limit values int8 instead of int4.  (Specifically, you
can do DatumGetInt32 safely on a null value, but not DatumGetInt64.)  Per
bug #2803 from Greg Johnson.

5f60086e10 Minor adjustments to make failures in startup/shutdown behave more cleanly.
StartupXLOG and ShutdownXLOG no longer need to be critical sections, because
in all contexts where they are invoked, elog(ERROR) would be translated to
elog(FATAL) anyway.  (One change in bgwriter.c is needed to make this true:
set ExitOnAnyError before trying to exit.  This is a good fix anyway since
the existing code would have gone into an infinite loop on elog(ERROR) during
shutdown.)  That avoids a misleading report of PANIC during semi-orderly
failures.  Modify the postmaster to include the startup process in the set of
processes that get SIGTERM when a fast shutdown is requested, and also fix it
to not try to restart the bgwriter if the bgwriter fails while trying to write
the shutdown checkpoint.  Net result is that "pg_ctl stop -m fast" does
something reasonable for a system in warm standby mode, and so should Unix
system shutdown (ie, universal SIGTERM).  Per gripe from Stephen Harris and
some corner-case testing of my own.

64353640e8 Mark to_char(timestamp without timezone) as stable, not immutable, since its
result now depends on the lc_messages setting, as noted by Bruce.
Also, mark to_number() and the numeric-type variants of to_char() as stable,
because their results depend on lc_numeric; this is a longstanding oversight.
Also, mark to_date() and to_char(interval) as stable; although these appear
not to depend on any GUC variables as of CVS HEAD, that seems a property
unlikely to survive future improvements.  It seems best to mark all the
formatting functions stable and be done with it.
catversion not bumped, because this does not seem critical enough to force
a post-RC1 initdb, and anyway we cannot do so in the back branches.
