3e51c1553c Add the Brazilian time zone abbreviations BRT, BRST, FNT, FNST.
ACT and ACST were already present.  AMT and AMST conflict with the
existing entries for Armenia; no change there for the moment.

a9f9a97906 I almost forgot mark in docs "to_char(interval)" as deprecated function.
This useless routine will removed in 7.5. It's already discussed (see
hackers list archive).

41477b9a83 This patch makes two minor fixes to the docs: (1) fixes a
spelling mistake in the PREPARE ref page (2) Makes some
English more consistent, in the ref pages for some of the
client apps (3) Adds a link to the libpq docs in the
vacuumdb ref page.

e7f266e5fe There is a misstatement in the CLOSE reference page, now that we
have cursors that might outlive their creating transactions. A
patch is attached that fixes this (suggestions on better wording
are welcome).

2326ade600 I just noticed that the sample pg_hba.conf in the docs doesn't contain
any use of CIDR masks - here's a patch that adds  a couple of  sample
lines and associated comments.

f7d9aa8fbf The attached patch adds some clarification to the documentation of the
binary format read/created by COPY BINARY. It also mentions the
contrib/binarycopy module.

c01641f8ae libpq failed to cope with COPY FROM STDIN if the command was issued
via extended query protocol, because it sends Sync right after Execute
without realizing that the command to be executed is COPY.  There seems
to be no reasonable way for it to realize that, either, so the best fix
seems to be to make the backend ignore Sync during copy-in mode.  Bit of
a wart on the protocol, but little alternative.  Also, libpq must send
another Sync after terminating the COPY, if the command was issued via
Execute.

0be731ad44 Add PQexecPrepared() and PQsendQueryPrepared() functions, to allow
libpq users to perform Bind/Execute of previously prepared statements.
Per yesterday's discussion, this offers enough performance improvement
to justify bending the 'no new features during beta' rule.

c090b053fe I'm quite fond of doing VPATH builds, i.e. building outside the source
tree. This also catches lots of little Makefile bugs, so here's a small
patch for one of them (replacing an explicit reference to thread.c with
a reference to it as the first prerequsite of the rule makes make look
for it in the place where it was found (the source tree) rather than in
the build tree. (using GNU make 3.79.1)
