39042637dd Oops, '-' doesn't work for my lynx either.
Change back to /dev/stdin, even though it isn't portable.  Let's wait for
someone to complain they don't have /dev/stdin.

adca025c9e Thanks to the generous support of Torchbox (http://www.torchbox.com), I
have been able to significantly improve the contrib/xml XPath
integration code.

New features:

* XPath set-returning function allows multiple results from an several
XPath queries to be used as a virtual table.
* Using libxslt, XSLT transformations (with and without parameters) are
supported. (Caution: This support allows generic URL fetching from
within the backend as well).

I've removed the old code so that it is all libxml based. Rather than
attach as a patch, I've put the tar.gz (10k!) at
http://www.azuli.co.uk/pgxml-1.0.tar.gz
(all files in archive are xml/....).

I think this is worth replacing the contrib version with, even though
the function names have changed (though the same functionality is
there), because it includes a SRF and some SPI usage, in addition to
linking to an external library. And it isn't a big module! Obviously, I
understand that people might prefer to move it elsewhere, or might have
reservations about replacing an existing contrib module with an
incompatible one. I'm open to suggestions.

1973971821 Per a brief conversation with Tom, I've created a patch for adding
support for 'week' within the date_trunc function.

Within the patch I added a couple of test cases and associated target
output, and changed the documentation to add 'week' appropriately.

44611f6e6d libpq's query to get the OIDs of large-object support functions was not
schema-safe.  Make it so, and improve the internal support for knowledge
of server version.

d91acf8401 Win32:
* Mostly, casting etc to remove compilation warnings in win32 only code.

* main.c: set _IONBF to stdout/stderr under win32 (under win32, _IOLBF
defaults to full buffering)

* pg_resetxlog/Makefile: ensures dirmod.o gets cleaned (got bitten by
this when, after "make clean"ing, switching compilation between Ming +
Cygwin)

2146bfc869 Emit a warning when an empty string is input to the oid, float4, and
float8 types. This begins the deprecation of this feature: in 7.6,
this input will be rejected.

Also added a new error code for warnings about deprecated features,
and updated the regression tests.

0b1f7cccd7 The trim function doc did not say that the second argument could be
be omitted. This patch fixes that. It also fixes a bug where the
type text was not wrapped as <type>text</type>.

9e733eab69 Modify pg_dump so that the preferred dump order is by name within
object types, rather than by OID.  This should help ensure consistent
dump output from databases that are logically the same but have different
histories, per recent discussion about 'diffing' databases.  The patch
is bulky because of renaming of fields, but not very complicated.
Also, do some tweaking to cause BLOB restoration to be done in a better
order, and clean up pg_restore's textual output to exactly match pg_dump.

119e968305 Adds the -W flag to the pwd call under Win32. This allows directories,
which are munged by sed, such as:
/e/cygwin/opt/diff9c/pgsql/src/test/regress/data/agg.data to be
correctly passed as:
e:/cygwin/opt/diff9c/pgsql/src/test/regress/data/agg.data

FWIW, "fixes" a large (> 20) tests under Win32.

64917ccb56 make_sort_from_pathkeys()'s method for choosing which of several
equivalent sort expressions to use was broken: you can't just look
at the relation membership, you have to actually grovel over the
individual Vars in each expression.  I think this did work when it
was written, but it was broken by subsequent optimizations that made
join relations not propagate every single input variable upward.
Must find the Var that got propagated, not choose one at random.
Per bug report from Daniel O'Neill.
