kibitzing from Tom Lane.  Large objects are now all stored in a single
system relation "pg_largeobject" --- no more xinv or xinx files, no more
relkind 'l'.  This should offer substantial performance improvement for
large numbers of LOs, since there won't be directory bloat anymore.
It'll also fix problems like running out of locktable space when you
access thousands of LOs in one transaction.
Also clean up cruft in read/write routines.  LOs with "holes" in them
(never-written byte ranges) now work just like Unix files with holes do:
a hole reads as zeroes but doesn't occupy storage space.
INITDB forced!

as well allow DROP multiple INDEX, RULE, TYPE as well.  Add missing
CommandCounterIncrement to DROP loop, which could cause trouble otherwise
with multiple DROP of items affecting same catalog entries.  Try to
bring a little consistency to various error messages using 'does not exist',
'nonexistent', etc --- I standardized on 'does not exist' since that's
what the vast majority of the existing uses seem to be.

 Thanks to Henry "He Weiping (Laser Henry)" <laser@zhengmai.com.cn>
 for catching this.

Remove lots of extraneous trailing ^Ms from pg_restore.sgml.

This patch forces the use of 'DROP VIEW' to destroy views.

It also changes the syntax of DROP VIEW to
DROP VIEW v1, v2, ...
to match the syntax of DROP TABLE.

Some error messages were changed so this patch also includes changes to the
appropriate expected/*.out files.

Doc changes for 'DROP TABLE" and 'DROP VIEW' are included.

Fix misspelling of disbursion to dispersion.

packages can use to configure their build.

E.g.,
$ pg-config --libdir
/usr/local/pgsql/lib

`pg-config --configure' stores the configure command line.

Fix new problems in insert.sgml and create_function.sgml which kept jade
 from completing.

 but were missing the "mailto:" prefix.
Fix typo.
Thanks to Neil Conway <nconway@klamath.dyndns.org> for the heads-up.

take 'em out of pg_operator.  Also remove from scan.l's set of legal
operator characters.  Update documentation.

that RAND_MAX applies to them, since it doesn't.  Instead add a
config.h parameter MAX_RANDOM_VALUE.  This is currently set at 2^31-1
but could be auto-configured if that ever proves necessary.  Also fix
some outright bugs like calling srand() where srandom() is appropriate.
