It seems like somebody used a dartboard while choosing integer widths
for the various values taken and returned by these functions ... and
then threw a fresh set of darts while writing the SQL declarations.

This patch brings the C code into line with what the SQL declarations
say, which is enough to make it not dump core on the particular 32-bit
machine I'm testing on.  But I think we could do with another round
of looking at what the datum widths *should* be.  For instance, it's
not all that sensible that hash_bitmap_info decided to use int64 to
represent a BlockNumber input when get_raw_page doesn't do it that way.

There's also a remaining problem that the expected outputs from the
test script are platform-dependent, but I'll leave that issue for
somebody else.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
