(table or index) before trying to open its relcache entry. This fixes
race conditions in which someone else commits a change to the relation's
catalog entries while we are in process of doing relcache load. Problems
of that ilk have been reported sporadically for years, but it was not
really practical to fix until recently --- for instance, the recent
addition of WAL-log support for in-place updates helped.
Along the way, remove pg_am.amconcurrent: all AMs are now expected to support
concurrent update.
- predefined variable "tps"
The value of variable tps is taken from the scaling factor
specified by -s option.
- -D option
Variable values can be defined by -D option.
- \set command now allows arithmetic calculations.
Update the calling convention for all external facing functions. By
external facing, I mean all functions that are directly referenced in
cube.sql. Prior to my update, all functions used the older V0 calling
convention. They now use V1.
New Functions:
cube(float[]), which makes a zero volume cube from a float array
cube(float[], float[]), which allows the user to create a cube from
two float arrays; one for the upper right and one for the lower left
coordinate.
cube_subset(cube, int4[]), to allow you to reorder or choose a subset of
dimensions from a cube, using index values specified in the array.

Few cleanups and couple of new things:
- add SHA2 algorithm to older OpenSSL
- add BIGNUM math to have public-key cryptography work on non-OpenSSL
build.
- gen_random_bytes() function
The status of SHA2 algoritms and public-key encryption can now be
changed to 'always available.'
That makes pgcrypto functionally complete and unless there will be new
editions of AES, SHA2 or OpenPGP standards, there is no major changes
planned.
- Replace sorted array of entries in maintenance_work_mem to binary tree,
this should improve create performance.
- More precisely calculate allocated memory, eliminate leaks
with user-defined extractValue()
- Improve wordings in tsearch2
This is an extension of pgstattuple to query information from indexes.
It supports btree, hash and gist. Gin is not supported. It scans only
index pages and does not read corresponding heap tuples. Therefore,
'dead_tuple' means the number of tuples with LP_DELETE flag.
Also, I added an experimental feature for btree indexes. It checks
fragmentation factor of indexes. If an leaf has the right link on the
next adjacent page in the file, it is assumed to be continuous (not
fragmented). It will help us to decide when to REINDEX.

I finally found some time to debug this, and I think I found a better
patch than the one you proposed. Mine is still hackish and is still a
workaround around a proper quoting solution, but at least it repairs
the parsing without introducing the \' quoting again.
I consider this a band-aid patch to fix the recent security update.
PostgreSQL gurus, would you consider applying this until a better
solution is found for DBMirror.pl?
Olivier, can you please confirm that the patch works for you, too?
Backpatched to 8.0.X.

* new split algorithm (as proposed in http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2006-06/msg00254.php)
* possible call pickSplit() for second and below columns
* add spl_(l|r)datum_exists to GIST_SPLITVEC -
pickSplit should check its values to use already defined
spl_(l|r)datum for splitting. pickSplit should set
spl_(l|r)datum_exists to 'false' (if they was 'true') to
signal to caller about using spl_(l|r)datum.
* support for old pickSplit(): not very optimal
but correct split
* remove 'bytes' field from GISTENTRY: in any case size of
value is defined by it's type.
* split GIST_SPLITVEC to two structures: one for using in picksplit
and second - for internal use.
* some code refactoring
* support of subsplit to rtree opclasses
TODO: add support of subsplit to contrib modules
tuples with less header overhead than a regular HeapTuple, per my
recent proposal. Teach TupleTableSlot code how to deal with these.
As proof of concept, change tuplestore.c to store MinimalTuples instead
of HeapTuples. Future patches will expand the concept to other places
where it is useful.
initially be 0. This is needed as a previous ABORT might have wiped out
an automatically opened transaction without maintaining the cursor count.
- Fix regression test expected file for the correct ERROR message, which
we now get given the above bug fix.
used by OpenOffice. Dictionaries are placed at
http://lingucomponent.openoffice.org/spell_dic.html
Dictionary automatically recognizes format of files.
Warning. MySpell's format has limitation with compound
word support: it's impossible to mark affix as
compound-only affix. So for norwegian, german etc
languages it's recommended to use original ispell format.
For that reason I don't want to remove my2ispell
scripts, it's has workaround at least for norwegian language.
It required some changes in lexize algorithm, but interface with
dictionaries stays compatible with old dictionaries.
