Bruce Momjian a6c7681997 This patch changes the behavior of PostgreSQL so that if any queries are
executed in an implicitely aborted transaction (e.g. after an occur
occurs), we return an error (and not just a warning). For example:

nconway=# begin;
BEGIN
nconway=# insert; -- syntax error
ERROR:  parser: parse error at or near ";"
nconway=# select * from a;
ERROR:  current transaction is aborted, queries ignored until end of
transaction block

The old behavior was:

nconway=# begin;
BEGIN
nconway=# insert;
ERROR:  parser: parse error at or near ";"
nconway=# select * from a;
WARNING:  current transaction is aborted, queries ignored until end
of transaction block
*ABORT STATE*

Which can be confusing: if the client isn't paying careful attention,
they will conclude that the query has executed (because no error is
returned).

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 several language
bindings, including C, C++, Perl, Python, and Tcl, as well as drivers
for JDBC and ODBC.

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/.
