we'll get there one day.

Use `cat' to create aclocal.m4, not `aclocal'. Some people don't
have automake installed.

Only run the autoconf rule in the top-level GNUmakefile if the
invoker specified `make configure', don't run it automatically
because of CVS timestamp skew.

inputs have been converted to newstyle.  This should go a long way towards
fixing our portability problems with platforms where char and short
parameters are passed differently from int-width parameters.  Still
more to do for the Alpha port however.

Implement TIME WITH TIME ZONE type (timetz internal type).
Remap length() for character strings to CHAR_LENGTH() for SQL92
 and to remove the ambiguity with geometric length() functions.
Keep length() for character strings for backward compatibility.
Shrink stored views by removing internal column name list from visible rte.
Implement min(), max() for time and timetz data types.
Implement conversion of TIME to INTERVAL.
Implement abs(), mod(), fac() for the int8 data type.
Rename some math functions to generic names:
 round(), sqrt(), cbrt(), pow(), etc.
Rename NUMERIC power() function to pow().
Fix int2 factorial to calculate result in int4.
Enhance the Oracle compatibility function translate() to work with string
 arguments (from Edwin Ramirez).
Modify pg_proc system table to remove OID holes.

Allow varchar() to only store needed bytes.  Remove PALLOC,PALLOCTYPE,PFREE.  Clean up use of VARDATA.

Another PGINDENT run that changes variable indenting and case label indenting.  Also static variable indenting.
