joerg dce99822b0 Update PostgreSQL 7.4.x to 7.4.12. Take maintainership.
The fix for locales and plperl in 7.4.11 might make an REINDEX necessary.

Changes from 7.4.8 to 7.4.9:
- Fix error that allowed VACUUM to remove ctid chains too soon, and add
more checking in code that follows ctid links
- Fix CHAR() to properly pad spaces to the specified length when using a
multiple-byte character set (Yoshiyuki Asaba)
- Fix the sense of the test for read-only transaction in COPY
- Fix planning problem with outer-join ON clauses that reference only
the inner-side relation
- Further fixes for x FULL JOIN y ON true corner cases
- Make array_in and array_recv more paranoid about validating their OID
parameter
- Fix missing rows in queries like UPDATE a=... WHERE a... with GiST
index on column a
- Improve robustness of datetime parsing
- Improve checking for partially-written WAL pages
- Improve robustness of signal handling when SSL is enabled
- Don't try to open more than max_files_per_process files during
postmaster startup
- Various memory leakage fixes
- Various portability improvements
- Fix PL/PgSQL to handle var := var correctly when the variable is of
pass-by-reference type
- Update contrib/tsearch2 to use current Snowball code

Changes from 7.4.9 to 7.4.10:
- Fix race condition in transaction log management
- Prevent failure if client sends Bind protocol message when current
transaction is already aborted
- /contrib/ltree fixes (Teodor)
- AIX and HPUX compile fixes (Tom)
- Fix longstanding planning error for outer joins
- Prevent core dump in pg_autovacuum when a table has been dropped

Changes from 7.4.10 to 7.4.11:
- Fix for protocol-level Describe messages issued outside a transaction
or in a failed transaction (Tom)
- Fix character string comparison for locales that consider different
character combinations as equal, such as Hungarian (Tom)
- Set locale environment variables during postmaster startup to ensure
that plperl won't change the locale later
- Fix longstanding bug in strpos() and regular expression handling in
certain rarely used Asian multi-byte character sets (Tatsuo)
- Fix bug in /contrib/pgcrypto gen_salt, which caused it not to use all
available salt space for MD5 and XDES algorithms (Marko Kreen, Solar
Designer)
- Fix /contrib/dblink to throw an error, rather than crashing, when the
number of columns specified is different from what's actually returned
by the query (Joe)

Changes from 7.4.11 to 7.4.12:
- Fix potential crash in SET SESSION AUTHORIZATION (CVE-2006-0553)
- Fix bug with row visibility logic in self-inserted rows (Tom)
- Fix race condition that could lead to "file already exists" errors
during pg_clog file creation (Tom)
- Properly check DOMAIN constraints for UNKNOWN parameters in prepared
statements (Neil)
- Fix to allow restoring dumps that have cross-schema references to
custom operators (Tom)
- Portability fix for testing presence of finite and isinf during
configure (Tom)
