The CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY bug can only be triggered by row updates, not inserts, since the problem would arise from an update incorrectly being made HOT. Noted by Alvaro.

As pointed out by Michael Paquier, recovery_min_apply_delay didn't exist in 9.0-9.3, making the release note text not very useful. Instead make it talk about recovery_target_xid, which did exist then. 9.0 is already out of support, but we can fix the text in the newer branches' copies of its release notes.

We have a practice of providing a "bread crumb" trail between the minor versions where the migration section actually tells you to do something. Historically that was just plain text, eg, "see the release notes for 9.2.4"; but if you're using a browser or PDF reader, it's a lot nicer if it's a live hyperlink. So use "<xref>" instead. Any argument against doing this vanished with the recent decommissioning of plain-text release notes. Vik Fearing

This function was misdeclared to take cstring when it should take internal. This at least allows crashing the server, and in principle an attacker might be able to use the function to examine the contents of server memory. The correct fix is to adjust the system catalog contents (and fix the regression tests that should have caught this but failed to). However, asking users to correct the catalog contents in existing installations is a pain, so as a band-aid fix for the back branches, install a check in enum_recv() to make it throw error if called with a cstring argument. We will later revert this in HEAD in favor of correcting the catalogs. Our thanks to Sumit Soni (via Secunia SVCRP) for reporting this issue. Security: CVE-2013-0255

This reverts commit d573e239, "Take fewer snapshots". While that seemed like a good idea at the time, it caused execution to use a snapshot that had been acquired before locking any of the tables mentioned in the query. This created user-visible anomalies that were not present in any prior release of Postgres, as reported by Tomas Vondra. While this whole area could do with a redesign (since there are related cases that have anomalies anyway), it doesn't seem likely that any future patch would be reasonably back-patchable; and we don't want 9.2 to exhibit a behavior that's subtly unlike either past or future releases. Hence, revert to prior code while we rethink the problem.

Also, set the release date to 2012-09-10, since we're pretty well committed to that now.
