tests pass.

these macros fail in if/else cases:

#define X \
{ \
	... \
}


{

	if (...)
		X;
	else
		...
}

with proper setup:

#define X \
do { \
	... \
} while (0)

it works fine.

fix for a bug in DatabaseMetaData.getIndexInfo().  This fixes a bug reported by tom_falconer@lineone.net.  On Sept 7th, he sent a test case to the list demonstrating the bug.  His test case now works successfully with this patch

(why bother dropping individual objects in a just-created database?)
as well as dangerous (as the code stands, the drops will be issued in
the wrong database, namely the one you were originally connected to).

behavior when password auth is used.

for indexes on system columns.  Per complaint from Peter.

environment strings need to be moved around, do so when called from
initial startup (main.c), not in init_ps_status.  This eliminates the
former risk of invalidating saved environment-string pointers, since
no code has yet had a chance to grab any such pointers when main.c
is running.

cleanups too.

per suggestion from Peter.  Simplify several APIs by transmitting the
original argv location directly from main.c to ps_status.c, instead of
passing it down through several levels of subroutines.
