using tsearch2, and provides the old names and API for most functions
that were changed. (rewrite(ARRAY[...]) is a glaring omission, though.)

Add documentation on modifying *.sql to set the search patch, and
mention that major upgrades should still run the installation scripts.
Some of these issues were spotted by Tom today.

Per gripe from Eddie Stanley and subsequent discussions with Fabien Coelho
and others.
This commit breaks any code that assumes that the mere act of forming a tuple
(without writing it to disk) does not "toast" any fields. While all available
regression tests pass, I'm not totally sure that we've fixed every nook and
cranny, especially in contrib.

ways. I'm not totally sure that I caught everything, but at least now they pass
their regression tests with VARSIZE/SET_VARSIZE defined to reverse byte order.
Get rid of VARATT_SIZE and VARATT_DATA, which were simply redundant with
VARSIZE and VARDATA, and as a consequence almost no code was using the
longer names. Rename the length fields of struct varlena and various
derived structures to catch anyplace that was accessing them directly;
and clean up various places so caught. In itself this patch doesn't
change any behavior at all, but it is necessary infrastructure if we hope
to play any games with the representation of varlena headers.

where possible, and fix some sites that apparently thought that fgets()
will overwrite the buffer by one byte.
Also add some strlcpy() to eliminate some weird memory handling.
Standard English uses "may", "can", and "might" in different ways:
may - permission, "You may borrow my rake."
can - ability, "I can lift that log."
might - possibility, "It might rain today."
Unfortunately, in conversational English, their use is often mixed, as
in, "You may use this variable to do X", when in fact, "can" is a better
choice. Similarly, "It may crash" is better stated, "It might crash".
In this case extractQuery should returns -1 as nentries. This changes
prototype of extractQuery method to use int32* instead of uint32* for
nentries argument.
Based on that gincostestimate may see two corner cases: nothing will be found
or seqscan should be used.

waiting a verdict about reviewing of tsearch_core patch.

and definitions use the "const" qualifier for arguments consistently.

the 8.1 SQL function definition for it. Per report from Rajesh Kumar Mallah,
such a DBA error doesn't seem at all improbable, and the cost of checking for
it is not very high compared to the cost of running this function. (It would
have been better to change the C name of the function so it wouldn't be called
by the old SQL definition, but it's too late for that now in the 8.2 branch.)
Previous versions aren't affected.
Fix synonym dictionary init: string should be malloc'ed, not palloc'ed. Bug
introduced recently while fixing lowerstr().
Fix string's length calculation for recoding, fix strlower() to avoid wrong
assumption about length of recoded string (was: recoded string is no greater
that source, it may not true for multibyte encodings)

and in particular offers a much cleaner workaround for the Intel compiler
bug that was affecting ginutil.c.
match the convention that foo's uninstall script is uninstall_foo.sql.
Also, stop installing lo_test.sql, which really ought to be made into
a regression test anyway (though it's unclear how to avoid a dependency
on the current OID counter...)
- Replace sorted array of entries in maintenance_work_mem to binary tree,
this should improve create performance.
- More precisely calculate allocated memory, eliminate leaks
with user-defined extractValue()
- Improve wordings in tsearch2
* new split algorithm (as proposed in http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2006-06/msg00254.php)
* possible call pickSplit() for second and below columns
* add spl_(l|r)datum_exists to GIST_SPLITVEC -
pickSplit should check its values to use already defined
spl_(l|r)datum for splitting. pickSplit should set
spl_(l|r)datum_exists to 'false' (if they was 'true') to
signal to caller about using spl_(l|r)datum.
* support for old pickSplit(): not very optimal
but correct split
* remove 'bytes' field from GISTENTRY: in any case size of
value is defined by it's type.
* split GIST_SPLITVEC to two structures: one for using in picksplit
and second - for internal use.
* some code refactoring
* support of subsplit to rtree opclasses

Dictionary automatically recognizes format of files.
Warning. MySpell's format has limitation with compound
word support: it's impossible to mark affix as
compound-only affix. So for norwegian, german etc
languages it's recommended to use original ispell format.
For that reason I don't want to remove my2ispell
scripts, it's has workaround at least for norwegian language.
It required some changes in lexize algorithm, but interface with
dictionaries stays compatible with old dictionaries.

1) rank_cd now use weight of lexemes
2) rank_cd and rank can use any combination of normalization methods:
no normalization
normalization by log(length of document)
-----/------- by length of document
-----/------- by number of unique word in document
-----/------- by log(number of unique word in document)
-----/------- by number of covers (only rank_cd)
Improve cover's search.

more compliant with the error message style guide. In particular,
errdetail should begin with a capital letter and end with a period,
whereas errmsg should not. I also fixed a few related issues in
passing, such as fixing the repeated misspelling of "lexeme" in
contrib/tsearch2 (per Tom's suggestion).

I hope that finalize multibyte support work in tsearch2, but testing is needed...

in the backend, but as typedefs in ecpg (favor the backend for
indenting).
Backpatch to 8.1.X.
- supports multibyte encodings
- more strict rules for lexemes
- flex isn't used
Add:
- tsquery plainto_tsquery(text)
Function makes tsquery from plain text.
- &&, ||, !! operation for tsquery for combining
tsquery from it's parts: 'foo & bar' || 'asd' => 'foo & bar | asd'
functionality, but I still need to make another pass looking at places
that incidentally use arrays (such as ACL manipulation) to make sure they
are null-safe. Contrib needs work too.
I have not changed the behaviors that are still under discussion about
array comparison and what to do with lower bounds.
