that the regression tests for foreign keys didn't seem to test
a deferred constraint that was not satisified by a later
statement and was not made immediate by set constraints,
so here's a simple added test with a single invalid insert and
a commit.

OK; the only change in this version is "isconst = false;". Now you can
use $0 as a result placeholder if desired. E.g.:

create or replace function tmp(anyelement, anyelement) returns anyarray as '
declare
  v_ret alias for $0;
  v_el1 alias for $1;
  v_el2 alias for $2;
begin
  v_ret := ARRAY[v_el1, v_el2];
  return v_ret;
end;
' language 'plpgsql';

create table f(f1 text, f2 text, f3 int, f4 int);
insert into f values ('a','b',1,2);
insert into f values ('z','x',3,4);

select tmp(f1,f2) from f;
select tmp(f3,f4) from f;

modes (and replace the requiressl boolean). The four options were first
spelled out by Magnus Hagander <mha@sollentuna.net> on 2000-08-23 in email
to pgsql-hackers, archived here:

http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2000-08/msg00639.php

My original less-flexible patch and the ensuing thread are archived at:

http://dbforums.com/t623845.html

Attached is a new patch, including documentation.

To sum up, there's a new client parameter "sslmode" and environment
variable "PGSSLMODE", with these options:

sslmode   description
-------   -----------
disable   Unencrypted non-SSL only
allow     Negotiate, prefer non-SSL
prefer    Negotiate, prefer SSL (default)
require   Require SSL

The only change to the server is a new pg_hba.conf line type,
"hostnossl", for specifying connections that are not allowed to use SSL
(for example, to prevent servers on a local network from accidentally
using SSL and wasting cycles). Thus the 3 pg_hba.conf line types are:

pg_hba.conf line types
----------------------
host       applies to either SSL or regular connections
hostssl    applies only to SSL connections
hostnossl  applies only to regular connections

These client and server options, the postgresql.conf ssl = false option,
and finally the possibility of compiling with no SSL support at all,
make quite a range of combinations to test. I threw together a test
script to try many of them out. It's in a separate tarball with its
config files, a patch to psql so it'll announce SSL connections even in
absence of a tty, and the test output. The test is especially informative
when run on the same tty the postmaster was started on, so the FATAL:
errors during negotiation are interleaved with the psql client output.

I saw Tom write that new submissions for 7.4 have to be in before midnight
local time, and since I'm on the east coast in the US, this just makes it
in before the bell. :)

look ... I'm not real certain which errors are strictly internal and which
are likely to be provoked by users.

print.c: Add one more line to pager calculation to account for the prompt.

dropped columns.  Fix by using LEFT JOIN rather than straight join
between pg_attribute and pg_type.  Also, use pg_type.oid as input to
format_type, so that we don't get a failure on deleted types of deleted
columns (this may be a change we ought to backpatch to 7.3....).

Alias the appropriate columns back to their original name.

Fixed formatting of a few other places as I went along (indenting)

Ok.. that works.

I must say it's a little strange being able to take a constant and say
its no longer constant anymore -- but I suppose it's no different than
defining then undefining pre-processor constants.

and Dmitry Tkach.  Specifically the previous fix still allowed the statement termination character through in unquoted places in the sql statement, and the driver never correctly handled someone passing a value of \0 in a string which under the v2 protocol would end the statement causing the following text to possibly
be treated as a new sql statement

was modified for IPv6.  Use a robust definition of struct sockaddr_storage,
do a proper configure test to see if ss_len exists, don't assume that
getnameinfo() will handle AF_UNIX sockets, don't trust getaddrinfo to
return the protocol we ask for, etc.  This incorporates several outstanding
patches from Kurt Roeckx, but I'm to blame for anything that doesn't
work ...
