variables.  New commands ALTER DATABASE ... SET and ALTER USER ... SET.

 between Postgres and PostgreSQL.

(salts were always zero!?), add much missing documentation.

Allow pg_shadow to be MD5 encrypted.
Add ENCRYPTED/UNENCRYPTED option to CREATE/ALTER user.
Add password_encryption postgresql.conf option.
Update wire protocol version to 2.1.

USER and ALTER USER to appear in any order, not only the fixed order
they used to be required to appear in.
Also, some changes from Tom Lane to create a FULL option for VACUUM;
it doesn't do anything yet, but I needed to change many of the same
files to make that happen, so now seemed like a good time.

Use "generic functions" for math and other routines.
Use SQL92 "type 'literal'" syntax rather than Postgres "'literal'::type".

* Let unprivileged users change their own passwords.

* The password is now an Sconst in the parser, which better reflects its text datatype and also
forces users to quote them.

* If your password is NULL you won't be written to the password file, meaning you can't connect
until you have a password set up (if you use password authentication).

* When you drop a user that owns a database you get an error. The database is not gone.

This one should work much better than the one I sent in previously. The
functionality is the same, but the patch was missing one file resulting
in
the compilation failing. The docs also received a minor fix.

ecpg reference page still needs formatting.

No big deal; fixed lots of other markup at the same time.
Bigest change: make sure there is no whitespace
 in front of <term> contents.
This will probably help the other output types too.

Split reference pages for CREATE TABLE AS and SELECT INTO to allow psgml
 (the emacs parser) to handle parsing.

 the trailing "-1". This makes a cleaner html output file name.
Clean up a few refpurpose fields.
