Documentation files in HTML and man formats are now prepared for
distribution using the distprep make target, like everything else.  They
are placed in doc/src/sgml/html and manX and installed from there by
make install, if present.  The business with the tarballs in the tarball
is gone.

Test coverage support now covers the entire source tree, including
contrib, instead of just src/backend.  In a related but independent
development, the commands make coverage and make coverage-html can be run
in any directory.

This turned out to be much easier than feared.  Besides a few ad hoc fixes
to pass the make target down the tree, change all affected makefiles to
list their directories in the SUBDIRS variable, changed from variants like
DIRS and WANTED_DIRS.  MSVC build fix was attempted as well.

errors in any commands, including in various clean targets that have so far
been handled inconsistently.  make -i is available to ignore all errors in
a consistent and official way.

generated text files.  Fix build of that file, too.

Put the text files in the right place during make dist, so there are no
extra manual steps required anymore.

is done for the analogous files in the main distribution.

for a long time.

"make pgxs install by default". It is up to the committers to chose.

(1) there is only one "install" target. no more "install-all-headers".
    it simplifies/changes several makefiles.

(2) the documentation reflects the change.

(3) a minor fix on pgxs to use a nicer patch without a double slash.

some massaging by Peter Eisentraut.  This is basically a simple
generalization of the existing contrib makefiles.

Remove all of the libpgtcl and pgtclsh files, including all references to
them within the various makefiles

with_tcl is still required for the src/pl/tcl language

testing $PostgreSQL$ tag

little use.

can't mix and match .gz and .bz2 in here ... won't build

seeing if building bz2 distributions actually works ...

remove src/data from target list

python needs to be removed from here

remove pgaccess from GNUmakefile.in if we want the beta to build :)

perl5 interface moved to gborg

Remove all traces of the ODBC driver, which is now on GBorg as the psqlodbc
project ...

Okay, libpq++ is moved to GBorg, and all traces of it have been removed
from the core repository ... I haven't *moved* the libpq++ files out of the
tree, mainly as we want to keep them in place for past branches ...

Peter, I think I've covered all the files I need, and re-ran autoconf to make
sure the configure file is in place properly ...

calls with new or now-built-in versions.  Make sure that all
calls to AC_DEFINE have a third argument, for possible use of
autoheader in the future.

built, not /doc.

are now separate files "postgres.h" and "postgres_fe.h", which are meant
to be the primary include files for backend .c files and frontend .c files
respectively.  By default, only include files meant for frontend use are
installed into the installation include directory.  There is a new make
target 'make install-all-headers' that adds the whole content of the
src/include tree to the installed fileset, for use by people who want to
develop server-side code without keeping the complete source tree on hand.
Cleaned up a whole lot of crufty and inconsistent header inclusions.

directories too, not only src and doc.

to start up a postmaster anyway.

add "check" and "installcheck" targets, straighten out make variable naming
of host_os, host_cpu, etc.
