80855ba8ca In pipe_read_line Windows code, loop to ensure we get a whole line
from the child process; fixes observed problems when the returned
version number is '8.0.0' rather than '8.0.0rc1'.  Magnus Hagander

da59a70c09 Remove direct inclusions of <com_err.h> as well as configure test for
its presence.  This amounts to desupporting Kerberos 5 releases 1.0.*,
which is small loss, and simplifies use of our Kerberos code on platforms
with Red-Hat-style include file layouts.  Per gripe from John Gray and
followup discussion.

e184663b24 plpgsql's exec_eval_simple_expr() now has to take responsibility for
advancing ActiveSnapshot when we are inside a volatile function.
Per example from Gaetano Mendola.  Add a regression test to catch
similar problems in future.

1553be4a0b Prevent evaluation of backticks while discarding unwanted arguments
after an unknown or failed psql backslash command, and also while
discarding "extra" arguments of a putatively valid backslash command.
In the case of an unknown/failed command, make sure we discard the
whole rest of the line, rather than trying to resume at the next
backslash.  Per discussion with Thomer Gil.

480777e56c Allow 'ELSEIF' as an alternative to 'ELSIF' in PL/PgSQL. There have been
several reports of users being confused when they attempt to use ELSEIF
and run into trouble due to PL/PgSQL's lax parser. The parser will be
improved for 8.1, but we can fix most of the problem by allowing ELSEIF
for now.

dd29fc2f61 Fix another place broken by new List implementation :-(. Per example
from goranpop@nspoint.net.  I think this escaped notice because in
simple cases the list is NIL on entry.

84dbd5a8f6 Disallow SETOF in the input of parseTypeString(). Formerly it was
silently ignored, allowing one to write bizarre things like
	DECLARE x setof int;
in plpgsql.  This has misled at least one novice into thinking that
plpgsql variables could be sets ...

f6a1a8e254 In 'make installcheck' for contrib/, insert 'sleep 1' between subdirectory
checks, to ensure the previous test backend has time to quit out of the
regression database.  Also, allow all the checks to be run even if one
of them fails.  Per suggestions from Andrew Dunstan to improve the
usefulness of buildfarm testing.

86a069bbed Cope with circularities involving a view's ON SELECT rule. I originally
thought there couldn't be any, but the folly of this was exposed by an
example from andrew@supernews.com 5-Dec-2004.  The patch applies the
identical logic already used for table constraints and defaults to ON
SELECT rules, so I have reasonable confidence in it even though it might
look like complicated logic.

94e467061e Fix pg_dump to ensure that a comment on a table CHECK constraint cannot
be emitted too soon.  The previous code got this right in the case where
the CHECK was emitted as a separate ALTER TABLE command, but not in the
case where the CHECK is emitted right in CREATE TABLE.  Per report from
Slawomir Sudnik.

Note: this code is pretty ugly; it'd perhaps be better to treat comments
as independently sortable dump objects.  That'd be much too invasive a
change for RC time though.
