8b4ff8b6a1 Wording cleanup for error messages. Also change can't -> cannot. 
Standard English uses "may", "can", and "might" in different ways:

        may - permission, "You may borrow my rake."

        can - ability, "I can lift that log."

        might - possibility, "It might rain today."

Unfortunately, in conversational English, their use is often mixed, as
in, "You may use this variable to do X", when in fact, "can" is a better
choice.  Similarly, "It may crash" is better stated, "It might crash".

d4c6da1527 Allow GIN's extractQuery method to signal that nothing can satisfy the query. 
In this case extractQuery should returns -1 as nentries. This changes
prototype of extractQuery method to use int32* instead of uint32* for
nentries argument.
Based on that gincostestimate may see two corner cases: nothing will be found
or seqscan should be used.

Per proposal at http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2007-01/msg01581.php

PS tsearch_core patch should be sightly modified to support changes, but I'm
waiting a verdict about reviewing of tsearch_core patch.

4ed9f1d9b7 Update documentation for backslashes to mention escape string syntax 
more, and standard_conforming_strings less, because in the future non-E
strings will not treat backslashes specially.

Also use E'' strings where backslashes are used in examples. (The
existing examples would have drawn warnings.)

Backpatch to 8.2.X.
