if MULTIBYTE is not enabled. So be sure to run initdb.

o these patches are made against the latest source tree (after
Bruce's massive patch, I think) BTW, I noticed that after running
regression, the oid field of pg_type seems disappeared.

	regression=> select oid from pg_type; ERROR:  attribute
	'oid' not found

this happens after the constraints test. This occures with/without
my patches. strange...

o pg_database_mb.h, pg_class_mb.h, pg_attribute_mb.h are no longer
used, and shoud be removed.

o GetDatabaseInfo() in utils/misc/database.c removed (actually in
#ifdef 0). seems nobody uses.

no longer returns buffer pointer, can be gotten from scan;
	descriptor; bootstrap can create multi-key indexes;
pg_procname index now is multi-key index; oidint2, oidint4, oidname
are gone (must be removed from regression tests); use System Cache
rather than sequential scan in many places; heap_modifytuple no
longer takes buffer parameter; remove unused buffer parameter in
a few other functions; oid8 is not index-able; remove some use of
single-character variable names; cleanup Buffer variables usage
and scan descriptor looping; cleaned up allocation and freeing of
tuples; 18k lines of diff;

As Bruce mentioned, this is due to the conflict among changes we made.
Included patches should fix the problem(I changed all MB to
MULTIBYTE). Please let me know if you have further problem.

P.S. I did not include pathces to configure and gram.c to save the
file size(configure.in and gram.y modified).

I really hope that I haven't missed anything in this one...

Attached are patches to enhance the multi-byte support.  (patches are
against 7/18 snapshot)

* determine encoding at initdb/createdb rather than compile time

Now initdb/createdb has an option to specify the encoding. Also, I
modified the syntax of CREATE DATABASE to accept encoding option. See
README.mb for more details.

For this purpose I have added new column "encoding" to pg_database.
Also pg_attribute and pg_class are changed to catch up the
modification to pg_database.  Actually I haved added pg_database_mb.h,
pg_attribute_mb.h and pg_class_mb.h. These are used only when MB is
enabled. The reason having separate files is I couldn't find a way to
use ifdef or whatever in those files. I have to admit it looks
ugly. No way.

* support for PGCLIENTENCODING when issuing COPY command

commands/copy.c modified.

* support for SQL92 syntax "SET NAMES"

See gram.y.

* support for LATIN2-5
* add UNICODE regression test case
* new test suite for MB

New directory test/mb added.

* clean up source files

Basic idea is to have MB's own subdirectory for easier maintenance.
These are include/mb and backend/utils/mb.

From: t-ishii@sra.co.jp

As mentioned around line 1153 in backend/commands/copy.c, the method
of array checking is not perfect.

test=> create table t1 (i text);
test=> insert into t1 values('{\\.}');
INSERT 2645600 1
test=> select * from t1;
i
-----
{\\.}
(2 rows)
test=> copy t1 to '/tmp/aaa';
test=> copy t1 from '/tmp/aaa';
ERROR:  CopyReadAttribute - end of record marker corrupted

Copy cannot read data produced by itself!

yyerror ones from bison. It also includes a few 'enhancements' to
the C programming style (which are, of course, personal).

The other patch removes the compilation of backend/lib/qsort.c, as
qsort() is a standard function in stdlib.h and can be used any
where else (and it is). It was only used in
backend/optimizer/geqo/geqo_pool.c, backend/optimizer/path/predmig.c,
and backend/storage/page/bufpage.c

There's more to come. Please review these patches. I ran the
regression tests and they only failed where this was expected
(random, geo, etc).

    seems  that  my last post didn't make it through. That's good
    since  the  diff  itself  didn't  covered  the  renaming   of
    pg_user.h to pg_shadow.h and it's new content.

    Here  it's  again.  The  complete regression test passwd with
    only some  float  diffs.  createuser  and  destroyuser  work.
    pg_shadow cannot be read by ordinary user.

varchar length.

Cleans up code so attlen is always length.

Removed varchar() hack added earlier.

Will fix bug in selecting varchar() fields, and varchar() can be
variable length.

   One  of  the design rules of PostgreSQL is extensibility. And
   to follow this rule means (at least for me) that there should
   not  only  be a builtin PL.  Instead I would prefer a defined
   interface for PL implemetations.

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

This patch replaces the 'no such class or insufficient privilege' with
distinct error messages that tell you whether the table really doesn't
exist or whether access was denied.
