if initdb fails.

Add a random number generator and seed setter (random(), SET SEED)
Fix up the interval*float8 math to carry partial months
 into the time field.
Add float8*interval so we have symmetry in the available math.
Fix the parser and define.c to accept SQL92 types as field arguments.
Fix the parser to accept SQL92 types for CREATE TYPE, etc. This is
 necessary to allow...
Bit/varbit support in contrib/bit cleaned up to compile and load
 cleanly. Still needs some work before final release.
Implement the "SOME" keyword as a synonym for "ANY" per SQL92.
Implement ascii(text), ichar(int4), repeat(text,int4) to help
 support the ODBC driver.
Enable the TRUNCATE() function mapping in the ODBC driver.

General cleanup for 7.0.

Note that there is some trouble with inconsistant input/output formats.

properly shut down in EndPlan, else we fail to free buffers and so forth
that they hold.

Ensure that outer tuple link needed for inner indexscan qual evaluation
gets set in the EvalPlanQual case.  This stops coredump, but we still
have resource leaks due to failure to clean up EvalPlanQual properly...

truly, I'm afraid).

It does work with the following patch applied and gcc 2.95.2 .

Use --with-template=aix_gcc to compile the whole lot with gcc.

The geometry regression test produces different precision.
With optimization I run into regression failures starting at oidjoins,
thus no -O2. Anybody else try gcc 2.95.2 and -O2 on beta4 ?

This is an important patch, since recent versions of the IBM compiler
are not for free, and thus most questions I get concern gcc.

PS.: I am testing with beta4

freebsd 4.0 is like bsdi for geometry test ...

freebsd has *-freebsd and *-freebsdelf ... float8 passes with this

xact abort state in pg_exec_query_dest, we should continue scanning the
querytree list, on the off chance that one of the later queries in the
string is COMMIT or ROLLBACK.

would crash, due to premature invocation of SetQuerySnapshot().  Clean
up problems with handling of multiple queries by splitting
pg_parse_and_plan into two routines.  The old code would not, for
example, do the right thing with END; SELECT... submitted in one query
string when it had been in transaction abort state, because it'd decide
to skip planning the SELECT before it had executed the END.  New
arrangement is simpler and doesn't force caller to plan if only
parse+rewrite is needed.

       Once  all  rows  are  fetched,  every  other  fetch access
       returns no rows.

If not, abort by default.  Abort can be prevented by using -i or
--ignore-version switch.

be an expression not just a simple Var, so long as only one table is
referenced (so that code isn't really any more difficult than before).
This whole thing is still fundamentally bogus, but at least we can accept
a few more cases than before.

Since plpgsql is a backend extension, it doesn't need libpq...

WHERE in a place where it can be part of a nestloop inner indexqual.
As the code stood, it put the same physical sub-Plan node into both
indxqual and indxqualorig of the IndexScan plan node.  That confused
later processing in the optimizer (which expected that tracing the
subPlan list would visit each subplan node exactly once), and would
probably have blown up in the executor if the planner hadn't choked first.
Fix by making the 'fixed' indexqual be a complete deep copy of the
original indexqual, rather than trying to share nodes below the topmost
operator node.  This had further ramifications though, because we were
making the aforesaid list of sub-Plan nodes during SS_process_sublinks
which is run before construction of the 'fixed' indexqual, meaning that
the copy of the sub-Plan didn't show up in that list.  Fix by rearranging
logic so that the sub-Plan list is built by the final set_plan_references
pass, not in SS_process_sublinks.  This may sound like a mess, but it's
actually a good deal cleaner now than it was before, because we are no
longer dependent on the assumption that planning will never make a copy
of a sub-Plan node.

 Should be more robust to overflows.
 Pass through an unmapped function unchanged, rather than rejecting it.
Add a few more functions, but comment out those which can go through as-is.
Can be used with contrib/odbc/ package, though that isn't committed yet.

    here is an updated version of the bit type with a bugfix and all the necessa
ry
SQL functions defined. This should replace what is currently in contrib. I'd
appreciate any comments on what is there.

Kind regards,
