not being consulted anywhere, so remove it and remove the _mdnblocks()
calls that were used to set it.  Change smgrextend interface to pass in
the target block number (ie, current file length) --- the caller always
knows this already, having already done smgrnblocks(), so it's silly to
do it over again inside mdextend.  Net result: extension of a file now
takes one lseek(SEEK_END) and a write(), not three lseeks and a write.

between index order and table order.

a PostgreSQL user-defined function.  The Metaphone system is a method of
matching similar sounding names (or any words) to the same code.

Metaphone was invented by Lawrence Philips as an improvement to the popular
name-hashing routine, Soundex.

This metaphone code is from Michael Kuhn, and is detailed at

P.S. in Connection.java if encoding=="WIN" then dbEncoding is set to
"Cp1252".
What if it's Cyrillic "WIN"? Than it should be "Cp1251". Is there any
way to fix that without making different "WIN" encodings in
PostgreSQL?

in referencing and referenced columns of an fk constraint
aren't comparable using '=' at constraint definition time
rather than insert/update time.

that the original code would consider things like UNIX domain sockets are

enables pltcl unknown support.


Also it adds substituting of tclsh with tclsh that was by configure in
pltcl_*mod scripts. For example, On freebsd, tclsh can be called
tclsh8.2 or
tclsh8.3 depending on installed version of Tcl.

After patching files
  src/pl/tcl/modules/pltcl_listmod
  src/pl/tcl/modules/pltcl_loadmod
  src/pl/tcl/modules/pltcl_delmod
must be renamed(copied,repocopied) to
  src/pl/tcl/modules/pltcl_listmod.in
  src/pl/tcl/modules/pltcl_loadmod.in
  src/pl/tcl/modules/pltcl_delmod.in

Here's a version of my suggested diffs transplanted to 7.1 beta 5.  I'm
still looking at the best way to integrate Tom Vijlbrief's fixes
(insofar as they're still needed); would 7.2 be a suitable time for
incompatible API changes?

Changes:

(*) Introduced bool, true, false (replacing some int, 1, 0)
(*) Made some member functions const
(*) Documented GetIsNull()
(*) Marked DisplayTuples() and PrintTuples() as obsolescent; fixed possible
    portability problem (assumed that NULL pointer equals all-zero bit pattern)
(*) PrintTuples(): renamed width parameter to fillAlign to conform with other
    usage; fixed memory leak and compile issue w.r.t. field separator (should
    also slightly improve performance)
(*) Fixed some minor compilation issues
(*) Moved "using namespace std;" out of headers, where they didn't belong; used
    new (temporary) preprocessor macro PGSTD to do this
(*) Made ToString() static, removed unneeded memset(), made buffer size adapt
    to sizeof(int)
(*) Made some constructors explicit
(*) Changed some const std::string & parameters to plain std::string
(*) Marked PgCursor::Cursor(std::string) as obsolescent (setter with same name
    as getter--bad style)
(*) Renamed some paramaters previously named "string"
(*) Introduced size_type typedef for number of tuples in result set
(*) PgTransaction now supports re-opening after closing, and aborts if not
    explicitly committed prior to destruction
