better make sure the sort order is totally specified; else we get burnt
by platform-specific behavior of qsort() with equal keys. Per buildfarm

would always have truncated the identifier to NAMEDATALEN-1 already,
but let's be safe. Per report from Klocwork.

Great.
A follow-up patch for current CVS HEAD is attached, and available at
http://troels.arvin.dk/db/pgsql/conformance/pgsql-sql-conformance-
followup.patch
The patch
- includes a core feature ID that had been left
out by mistake (C011)
- updates the sql_feature_packages.txt table to
reflect changes in SQL:2003 which were not
covered properly in my last patch

This was fixed in v1.21 of pg_autovacuum.c, That rev is tagged for
beta3, so you should not be seeing this issue unless you actually have
an older version for some reason.

It's not so much that it strips them (that happens automagically), more
that it doesn't re-add them when it writes the command line in the
registry. The attached patch fixes that by simply quoting all options
that may need it.

A -E <service> option is added in the attached patch.

the "ps" argument list on Unix - meaning that there is no way to
identify for example the stats processors or the bgwriter.
This patch adds this functionality, in a bit of a crufty way. It creates
a kernel Event object with the name of what would be in the title. This
can be viewed using for example Process Explorer.
It's been very handy for me during both debugging and using. I haven't
figured a better way, but perhaps someone has one that's less crufty? If
not, here is at least a working patch :-)

reasons I outlined in pghackers a few days ago.
Also, undo someone's overly optimistic decision to reduce tuple state
checks from if (...) elog() to Asserts. If I trusted this code more,
I might think it was a good idea to disable these checks in production
installations. But I don't.
escapes --- they aren't simply quoted characters. Problem noted by
Antti Salmela. Also fix problem with incorrect handling of multibyte
characters when followed by a quantifier.
In particular, there was a mathematical tie between the two possible
nestloop-with-materialized-inner-scan plans for a join (ie, we computed
the same cost with either input on the inside), resulting in a roundoff
error driven choice, if the relations were both small enough to fit in
sort_mem. Add a small cost factor to ensure we prefer materializing the
smaller input. This changes several regression test plans, but with any
luck we will now have more stability across platforms.
