From e17e40f783da252934b19f43981084b3b1687d84 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Tom Lane <tgl@sss.pgh.pa.us>

Subject: [PATCH] Allow numeric_fac() to be interrupted, since it can take
 quite a while for large inputs.  Also cause it to error out immediately if
 the result will overflow, instead of grinding through a lot of calculation
 first. Per gripe from Jim Nasby.
