database, emit a WARNING and do nothing, rather than raising ERROR.
Per recent discussion in which we concluded this is the best way to deal
with database dumps that are reloaded into a database of a new name.
fixed incorrect initial setting of StartUpID. The logic in XLogWrite()
expects that Write->curridx is advanced to the next page as soon as
LogwrtResult points to the end of the current page, but StartupXLOG()
failed to make that happen when the old WAL ended exactly on a page
boundary. Per trouble report from Hannu Krosing.
for the sign of timezone offsets, ie, positive is east from UTC. These
were previously out of step with other operations that accept or show
timezones, such as I/O of timestamptz values.
query node, since that won't work unless the planner is upgraded.
Someday we should try to support at least some cases of this, but for
now just plug the hole in the dike. Per discussion with Dmitry Tkach.
shared_buffers and max_connections values to use before we run the
bootstrap process. Without this, initdb would fail on platforms where
the hardwired default values are too large. (We could get around that
by making the hardwired defaults tiny, perhaps, but why slow down
bootstrap by starving it for buffers...)
and 100 respectively, if the platform will allow it. initdb selects
values that are not too large to allow the postmaster to start, and
places these values in the installed postgresql.conf file. This allows
us to continue to start up out-of-the-box on platforms with small SHMMAX,
while having somewhat-realistic default settings on platforms with
reasonable SHMMAX. Per recent pghackers discussion.

without needing a running backend. Reorder postgresql.conf.sample
to match new layout of runtime.sgml. This commit re-adds work lost
in Wednesday's crash.
