Remove mention of the old "migration" flat files.
Change URLs for resources to point to areas, not particular files.
That way things stay correct even when version of tools change.

Most of the .sgml source files contain a reference to this file in an
Emacs setup block at the bottom of the file...
6.4.1. Here is the list:
- The type int8 now works. In fact, the bug(s) were in
src/backend/port/snprintf.c, so int8 is probably broken in every platform
that hasn't a native snprintf/vsnprintf. The type itself worked as
expected, only the output was wrong. Anyway, this patch should be checked
in other platforms.
- The regression tests for int2 and int4, which were broken due to
differences in the error messages, are fixed.
- The regression test for float8, which was broken in the reference
platform, is also fixed. I don't know if the new file (float8-OSF1.out)
will work on other platforms, but it might be worth to try it.
- Two new template files are provided (alpha_cc, which includes
optimization, and alpha_gcc), and src/templates/.similar is updated
accordingly. src/templates/alpha should be removed from the distribution.
*IMPORTANT NOTE*: I don't know if you can use gcc to compile postgres;
I've written the alpha_gcc file because alpha_cc has some flags that are
specific to DEC C.
- There is a (very basic) Digital Unix specific FAQ in
doc/FAQ_DigitalUnix.

Revise sequence of instructions to allow you to start the regular
postmaster run before running regression tests; there's no need to
start and kill a special postmaster for regression tests.
Update the description of interpreting regression test results.
