source directory even for out-of-tree builds.  They are now alsl built in
the build tree.  This should be more convenient for certain developers'
workflows, and shouldn't really break anything else.

present.)

during parsing.  Formerly the parser's stack was allocated with malloc
and so wouldn't be reclaimed; this patch makes it use palloc instead,
so that flushing the current context will reclaim the memory.  Per
Marko Kreen.

There are still some weak spots around JOIN USING and relation alias lists,
but most errors reported within backend/parser/ now have locations.

change build system to use only Bison.  Simplify build rules, make file names
uniform.  Don't build the token table header file where it is not needed.

warnings.  Peter did this for core awhile ago but evidently missed
contrib.

This particular batch was just for *.c and *.h file.

The changes were made with the following 2 commands:

find . \( \( -name 'libstemmer' -o -name 'expected' -o -name 'ppport.h' \) -prune \) -o  \( -name '*.[ch]'  \) \( -exec grep -q '\$PostgreSQL' {} \; -o -print \) | while read file ; do head -n 1 < $file | grep -q '^/\*' && echo $file; done | xargs -l sed -i -e '1s/^\// /' -e '1i/*\n * $PostgreSQL:$ \n *'

find . \( \( -name 'libstemmer' -o -name 'expected' -o -name 'ppport.h' \) -prune \) -o  \( -name '*.[ch]'  \) \( -exec grep -q '\$PostgreSQL' {} \; -o -print \) | xargs -l sed -i -e '1i/*\n * $PostgreSQL:$ \n */'

conventions.

I also changed seg_in and seg_out, which was probably unnecessary, but
it can't harm.

uses of the long-deprecated float32 in contrib/seg; the definitions themselves
are still there, but no longer used.  fmgr/README updated to match.

I added a CREATE FUNCTION to account for existing seg_center() code in seg.c
too, and some tests for it and the neighbor functions.  At the same time,
remove checks for NULL which are not needed (because the functions are declared
STRICT).

I had to do some adjustments to contrib's btree_gist too.  The choices for
representation there are not ideal for changing the underlying types :-(

Original patch by Zoltan Boszormenyi, with some adjustments by me.

"consistent" functions, and remove pg_amop.opreqcheck, as per recent
discussion.  The main immediate benefit of this is that we no longer need
8.3's ugly hack of requiring @@@ rather than @@ to test weight-using tsquery
searches on GIN indexes.  In future it should be possible to optimize some
other queries better than is done now, by detecting at runtime whether the
index match is exact or not.

Tom Lane, after an idea of Heikki's, and with some help from Teodor.

	remove transactions
	use create or replace function
	make formatting consistent
	set search patch on first line

Add documentation on modifying *.sql to set the search patch, and
mention that major upgrades should still run the installation scripts.

Some of these issues were spotted by Tom today.

* new split algorithm (as proposed in http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2006-06/msg00254.php)
  * possible call pickSplit() for second and below columns
  * add spl_(l|r)datum_exists to GIST_SPLITVEC -
    pickSplit should check its values to use already defined
    spl_(l|r)datum for splitting. pickSplit should set
    spl_(l|r)datum_exists to 'false' (if they was 'true') to
    signal to caller about using spl_(l|r)datum.
  * support for old pickSplit(): not very optimal
    but correct split
* remove 'bytes' field from GISTENTRY: in any case size of
  value is defined by it's type.
* split GIST_SPLITVEC to two structures: one for using in picksplit
  and second - for internal use.
* some code refactoring
* support of subsplit to rtree opclasses

is done for the analogous files in the main distribution.

Most of the changes add the mandatory USING clause to DROP OPERATOR
CLASS statements.  DROP TYPE is now DROP TYPE CASCADE; without
CASCADE a DROP TYPE fails due to the circular dependency on the
type's I/O functions.  The DROP FUNCTION statements for the I/O
functions have been removed, as DROP TYPE CASCADE removes them
automatically. Patch from Michael Fuhr.

unlike template0 and template1 does not have any special status in
terms of backend functionality.  However, all external utilities such
as createuser and createdb now connect to "postgres" instead of
template1, and the documentation is changed to encourage people to use
"postgres" instead of template1 as a play area.  This should fix some
longstanding gotchas involving unexpected propagation of database
objects by createdb (when you used template1 without understanding
the implications), as well as ameliorating the problem that CREATE
DATABASE is unhappy if anyone else is connected to template1.

pghackers discussions.
