O_DSYNC (specifically this broke all the Windows buildfarm members)

Do not close files that weren't opened.

Remove #include bufmgr.h from (most?) source files which already include
bufpage.h.

not which one we had before (that worked, and thus is completley irrelevant)

unnecessary #include lines in it.  Also, move some tuple routine prototypes and
macros to htup.h, which allows removal of heapam.h inclusion from some .c
files.

For this to work, a new header file access/sysattr.h needed to be created,
initially containing attribute numbers of system columns, for pg_dump usage.

While at it, make contrib ltree, intarray and hstore header files more
consistent with our header style.

output column are not emitted.  (That change already caused more noise in
the regression test output files than I would like.)  Provide some needed
editorial help for comments, clean up code formatting.

as those for inherited columns; that is, it's no longer allowed for a child
table to not have a check constraint matching one that exists on a parent.
This satisfies the principle of least surprise (rows selected from the parent
will always appear to meet its check constraints) and eliminates some
longstanding bogosity in pg_dump, which formerly had to guess about whether
check constraints were really inherited or not.

The implementation involves adding conislocal and coninhcount columns to
pg_constraint (paralleling attislocal and attinhcount in pg_attribute)
and refactoring various ALTER TABLE actions to be more like those for
columns.

Improve logic for finding object files on OBJS lines in contrib Makefiles. If this unbreaks buildfarm mastodon, apply everywhere.

Also, clean up the code that assigned the scale into :scale variables.

began to realize that the input() function isn't used and printed warnings.

parameter. This fixes bug 4137 reported by Wojciech Strzalka, where a WAL
file is deleted too early when starting the recovery of a warm standby server.

Also add a sanity check in pg_standby so that it will refuse to delete anything
earlier than the file being restored, and improve the debug message in case
nothing is deleted.

something was wrong with that tab patch.

pg_wcsformat without changing pg_wcssize to match.  Add some comments to
try to make that clearer, and make a couple other minor editorializations.

adjust source code to be more modular.

return 1, rather than error.

This was already the float8 behavior.

file/pipe output too if \pset columns' is set.

instead of calling a bunch of individual functions.

This function can also be called directly, taking a PID as an argument, to
return only the data for a single PID.
