MIN/MAX not be converted to use an index if the query WHERE clause contains
any volatile functions or subplans.

I had originally feared that the conversion might alter the behavior of such a
query with respect to a volatile function.  Well, so it might, but only in the
sense that the function would get evaluated at a subset of the table rows
rather than all of them --- and we have never made any such guarantee anyway.
(For instance, we don't refuse to use an index for an ordinary non-aggregate
query when one of the non-indexable filter conditions contains a volatile
function.)

The prohibition against subplans was because of worry that that case wasn't
adequately tested, which it wasn't, but it turns out to be possible to make
8.1 fail anyway:

or ten = (select f1 from int4_tbl limit 1)) from tenk1 o;
ERROR:  direct correlated subquery unsupported as initplan

This is due to bogus code in SS_make_initplan_from_plan (it's an initplan,
ergo it can't have any parParams).  Having fixed that, we might as well allow

Remove unused function SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh_callback() from libpq:

In the SSL code in libpq it does some processing with DH parameters:

SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh_callback()

This function is marked as server use only[1], the client always uses
the DH parameters in the server, so all the code in the client dealing
with the DH parameters is useless. This patch removes it.

It's not clear why the code was added in the first place, it's been
there almost since the beginning[2]. At the time there was a suggestion
of merging the front-end and backend SSL code, but looking at the
changes since, that seems unlikely.

As a further example, the s_server program allows you to specify DH
params, but s_client doesn't. In the GnuTLS documentation under
gnutls_dh_params_generate2() it says[3]:

  Also note that the DH parameters are only useful to servers. Since

Bruce Momjian [Tue, 25 Apr 2006 00:01:44 +0000 (00:01 +0000)]
Update SQL-standard INTERVAL item:

        o Support ISO INTERVAL syntax if units cannot be determined from
          the string, and are supplied after the string

          The SQL standard states that the units after the string specify
          the units of the string, e.g. INTERVAL '2' MINUTE should
          return '00:02:00'.  The current behavior has the units
          restrict the interval value to the specified unit or unit range,
          INTERVAL '70' SECOND returns '00:00:10'.

          For syntax that isn't uniquely ISO or PG syntax, like '1' or
          '1:30', treat as ISO if there is a range specification clause,
          and as PG if there no clause is present, e.g. interpret
          '1:30' MINUTE TO SECOND as '1 minute 30 seconds', and
          interpret '1:30' as '1 hour, 30 minutes'.

          This makes common cases like SELECT INTERVAL '1' MONTH
          SQL-standard results.  The SQL standard supports a limited
          number of unit combinations and doesn't support unit names
          in the string.  The PostgreSQL syntax is more flexible in
          the range of units supported, e.g. PostgreSQL supports
          '1 year 1 hour', while the SQL standard does not.
