5fd7df43e2 I now see we support RESET SESSION AUTHORIZATION, so it seems we have to
use RESET CONNECTION:

< * Add RESET SESSION command to reset all session state
> * Add RESET CONNECTION command to reset all session state

<   notify the protocol when a RESET SESSION command is used.
>   notify the protocol when a RESET CONNECTION command is used.

that is measured.

c880f9aeb2 Update SQL-standard INTERVAL item:
o Support ISO INTERVAL syntax if units cannot be determined from
          the string, and are supplied after the string

          The SQL standard states that the units after the string specify
          the units of the string, e.g. INTERVAL '2' MINUTE should
          return '00:02:00'.  The current behavior has the units
          restrict the interval value to the specified unit or unit range,
          INTERVAL '70' SECOND returns '00:00:10'.

          For syntax that isn't uniquely ISO or PG syntax, like '1' or
          '1:30', treat as ISO if there is a range specification clause,
          and as PG if there no clause is present, e.g. interpret
          '1:30' MINUTE TO SECOND as '1 minute 30 seconds', and
          interpret '1:30' as '1 hour, 30 minutes'.

          This makes common cases like SELECT INTERVAL '1' MONTH
          SQL-standard results.  The SQL standard supports a limited
          number of unit combinations and doesn't support unit names
          in the string.  The PostgreSQL syntax is more flexible in
          the range of units supported, e.g. PostgreSQL supports
          '1 year 1 hour', while the SQL standard does not.

efe3de07e9 Removes or minimizes some documentation mentions of backward
compatibility for release 7.2 and earlier.  I have not altered any
mentions of release 7.3 or later.  The release notes were not modified,
so the changes are still documented, just not in the main docs.

2206b498d8 Simplify ParamListInfo data structure to support only numbered parameters,
not named ones, and replace linear searches of the list with array indexing.
The named-parameter support has been dead code for many years anyway,
and recent profiling suggests that the searching was costing a noticeable
amount of performance for complex queries.

1b4504ced2 Remove from TODO ability to edit pg_hba.conf, but add GRANT connection
permission item:

< 	o %Allow pg_hba.conf settings to be controlled via SQL
> 	o %Allow per-database permissions to be set via GRANT
< 	  This would add a function to load the SQL table from
<           pg_hba.conf, and one to writes its contents to the flat file.
< 	  The table should have a line number that is a float so rows
< 	  can be inserted between existing rows, e.g. row 2.5 goes
< 	  between row 2 and row 3.
> 	  Allow database connection checks based on GRANT rules in
> 	  addition to the existing access checks in pg_hba.conf.

b5498a26de Add some optional code (conditionally compiled under #ifdef LWLOCK_STATS)
to track the number of LWLock acquisitions and the number of times we
block waiting for an LWLock, on a per-process basis.  After having needed
this twice in the past few months, seems like it should go into CVS.

efe222268f Eliminate some no-longer-needed workarounds for palloc's old behavior
of rejecting palloc(0).  Also, tweak like_selectivity() to avoid assuming
the presented pattern is nonempty; although that assumption is valid,
it doesn't really help much, and the new coding is more correct anyway
since it properly handles redundant wildcards.  In combination these
changes should eliminate a Coverity warning noted by Martijn.

eac825aa68 Ensure that we validate the page header of the first page of a WAL file
whenever we start to read within that file.  The first page carries
extra identification information that really ought to be checked, but
as the code stood, this was only checked when we switched sequentially
into a new WAL file, or if by chance the starting checkpoint record was
within the first page.  This patch ensures that we will detect bogus
'long header' information before we start replaying the WAL sequence.

cc7eab38dd Recognize __ppc64__, which seems to be Apple's spelling of the predefined
symbol for PPC64 hardware.  I hadn't known that Apple supported PPC64 at
all, but darn if there aren't 64-bit variant libraries in OS X as well
as support in their gcc.

04ca4caa81 Remove use of lorder and tsort while building static libraries. There's
no evidence that any currently-supported platform needs this, and good
reason to think that any platform that did need it couldn't use the static
libraries anyway --- libpq, at least, has circular references.  Removing
the code shuts up tsort warnings about the circular references on some
platforms.
