an EXTREMELY serious bug --- kudos to Satoshi Okada for creating a
reproducible test case to prove its existence.

I don't expect any more releases of these old versions, but let's put the
fix in CVS just so it's archived.
bottom. Otherwise we fail to moveright when the root page was split while
we were "in flight" to it. This is not a significant problem when the root
is above the leaf level, but if the root was also a leaf (ie, a single-page
index just got split) we may return the wrong leaf page to the caller,
resulting in failure to find a key that is in fact present. Bug has existed
at least since 7.1, probably forever.
harmless on signed-char machines but would lead to core dump in the
deadlock detection code if char is unsigned. Amazingly, this bug has
been here since 7.1 and yet wasn't reported till now. Thanks to Robert
Bruccoleri for providing the opportunity to track it down.
known problem with failure to respond to 'pg_ctl stop -m fast', and
probable problems if SIGINT or SIGTERM arrives while processing a
SIGUSR2 interrupt that arrived while waiting for a new client query.

define '=' operator for gist__intbig_ops opclass.
Now '=' operator is consistent with standard 'array' type.
Thanks Achilleus Mantzios for bug report and suggestion.

rid of all of them for safety's sake.

Illegal long options to pg_dump makes core on some systems, since it
lacks the last null sentinel of struct option array.
Attached is a patch made by Mr. Ishida Akio <iakio@pjam.jpweb.net>.
Fix PQescapeBytea/PQunescapeBytea so that they handle bytes > 0x7f.
This is necessary for mulibyte character sequences.

wrapped-around databases. The unvacuumed databases might be fine, or
they might not, but things will definitely not be fine if we remove the
wrong CLOG segments. Per trouble report from Gary Wolfe, 1-Apr-2002.
