debate was from Paul Vixie, who wanted INET to be the name covering
both IPV4 and IPV6.  The following kit makes the needed changes:

Tom Ivar Helbekkmo

was tested with Linux/GCC.  I still have some issues with with the
snprintf() function.

David Hartwig

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;

   Attached to the mail is locale-patch.tar.gz. In the archive
   there are:

file README.locale
   short description

directory src/test/locale
   test suite; currently only koi8-r tests, but the suite can be
   easily extended

file locale.patch
   the very patch; to apply: patch < locale.patch; should be applied
   to postgres-6.3.2 (at least I created it with 6.3.2 without any
additional
   patches)

   Files touched by the patch:  src/include/utils/builtins.h

Add routines to allow sizing of varchar and bpchar into target columns.

Hi, here are patches I promised (against 6.3.2):

* character_length(), position(), substring() are now aware of
          multi-byte characters
* add octet_length()
* add --with-mb option to configure
* new regression tests for EUC_KR
  (contributed by "Soonmyung. Hong" <hong@lunaris.hanmesoft.co.kr>)
* add some test cases to the EUC_JP regression test
* fix problem in regress/regress.sh in case of System V
* fix toupper(), tolower() to handle 8bit chars

note that:

o  patches for both configure.in and configure are
included. maybe the one for configure is not necessary.

o pg_proc.h was modified to add octet_length(). I used OIDs
(1374-1379) for that. Please let me know if these numbers are not
appropriate.

1. Remove the char2, char4, char8 and char16 types from postgresql
2. Change references of char16 to name in the regression tests.
3. Rename the char16.sql regression test to name.sql.  4. Modify
the regression test scripts and outputs to match up.

Might require new regression.{SYSTEM} files...

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.

 closer to standard behavior.
Substitute "text *" for "struct varlena *" in declarations.

 (> 16 characters) are allowed in pg_proc (thanks Bruce!).

Remove declarations in builtins.h duplicated in dt.h.
Change a few return type declarations to use "type *"
 rather than "struct ...".
