Tom Lane 90f5883363 Fix regexp substring matching (substring(string from pattern)) for the corner
case where there is a match to the pattern overall but the user has specified
a parenthesized subexpression and that subexpression hasn't got a match.
An example is substring('foo' from 'foo(bar)?').  This should return NULL,
since (bar) isn't matched, but it was mistakenly returning the whole-pattern
match instead (ie, 'foo').  Per bug #4044 from Rui Martins.

This has been broken since the beginning; patch in all supported versions.
The old behavior was sufficiently inconsistent that it's impossible to believe
anyone is depending on it.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================
  
This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

The JDBC, ODBC, C++, Python, and Tcl interfaces have been moved to the
PostgreSQL Projects Web Site at http://gborg.postgresql.org for separate
maintenance.  A Perl DBI/DBD driver is available from CPAN.

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the
file HISTORY.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/.  For more information look at our web
site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
