blanks, in hopes of reducing the surprise factor for newbies. Remove
redundant operators for VARCHAR (it depends wholly on TEXT operations now).
Clean up resolution of ambiguous operators/functions to avoid surprising
choices for domains: domains are treated as equivalent to their base types
and binary-coercibility is no longer considered a preference item when
choosing among multiple operators/functions. IsBinaryCoercible now correctly
reflects the notion that you need *only* relabel the type to get from type
A to type B: that is, a domain is binary-coercible to its base type, but
not vice versa. Various marginal cleanup, including merging the essentially
duplicate resolution code in parse_func.c and parse_oper.c. Improve opr_sanity
regression test to understand about binary compatibility (using pg_cast),
and fix a couple of small errors in the catalogs revealed thereby.
Restructure "special operator" handling to fetch operators via index opclasses
rather than hardwiring assumptions about names (cleans up the pattern_ops
stuff a little).

single-byte encodings, and a direct C implementation of the single-argument
forms (where spaces are always what gets trimmed). This is in preparation
for using rtrim1() as the bpchar-to-text cast operator, but is a useful
performance improvement even if we decide not to do that.
independently of whether the struct tm tm_zone member exists.
Also run autoheader, which seems not to have been done lately;
it added about three more things to pg_config.h.in than I was expecting...
example from Rao Kumar. This is a very corner corner-case, requiring
a minimum of three closely-spaced database crashes and an unlucky
positioning of the second recovery's checkpoint record before you'd notice
any problem. But the consequences are dire enough that it's a must-fix.
Ross Reedstrom, a couple months back) and to detect timezones that are
using leap-second timekeeping. The unknown-zone-name test is pretty
heuristic and ugly, but it seems better than the old behavior of just
switching to GMT given a bad name. Also make DecodePosixTimezone() a
tad more robust.
on Linux and would have who knows what unpleasant effects on other platforms.
If you need another include file for Windows, then add it; don't go
messing with the semantics of every other port's include files.
