Tom Lane 010394d7aa Fix two distinct errors in creation of GIN_INSERT_LISTPAGE xlog records.
In practice these mistakes were always masked when full_page_writes was on,
because XLogInsert would always choose to log the full page, and then
ginRedoInsertListPage wouldn't try to do anything.  But with full_page_writes
off a WAL replay failure was certain.

The GIN_INSERT_LISTPAGE record type could probably be eliminated entirely
in favor of using XLOG_HEAP_NEWPAGE, but I refrained from doing that now
since it would have required a significantly more invasive patch.

In passing do a little bit of code cleanup, including making the accounting
for free space on GIN list pages more precise.  (This wasn't a bug as the
errors were always in the conservative direction.)

Per report from Simon.  Back-patch to 8.4 which contains the identical code.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================
  
This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	http://www.postgresql.org/download

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the
file HISTORY.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
http://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
