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.

Attached you'll find a (big) patch that fixes make dep and make
depend in all Makefiles where I found it to be appropriate.

It also removes the dependency in Makefile.global for NAMEDATALEN
and OIDNAMELEN by making backend/catalog/genbki.sh and bin/initdb/initdb.sh
a little smarter.

This no longer requires initdb.sh that is turned into initdb with
a sed script when installing Postgres, hence initdb.sh should be
renamed to initdb (after the patch has been applied :-) )

This patch is against the 6.3 sources, as it took a while to
complete.

Please review and apply,

Cheers,

    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.

some of the ports...

tree "non-PORTNAME" dependent.  Technically, anything that is PORTNAME
dependent should be able to be derived at compile time, through configure
or through gcc

Add pg_description table for info on tables, columns, operators, types, and aggregates.  Modify psql with new \dd operator to access description
