This function was misdeclared to take cstring when it should take internal.
This at least allows crashing the server, and in principle an attacker
might be able to use the function to examine the contents of server memory.

The correct fix is to adjust the system catalog contents (and fix the
regression tests that should have caught this but failed to).  However,
asking users to correct the catalog contents in existing installations
is a pain, so as a band-aid fix for the back branches, install a check
in enum_recv() to make it throw error if called with a cstring argument.
We will later revert this in HEAD in favor of correcting the catalogs.

Our thanks to Sumit Soni (via Secunia SVCRP) for reporting this issue.

Security: CVE-2013-0255

The original code used freeze_min_age instead of freeze_table_age.  The
main consequence of this mistake is that lowering freeze_min_age would
cause full-table scans to occur much more frequently, which causes
serious issues because the number of writes required is much larger.
That feature (freeze_min_age) is supposed to affect only how soon tuples
are frozen; some pages should still be skipped due to the visibility
map.

Backpatch to 8.4, where the freeze_table_age feature was introduced.

This ensure the version number increases over time. The first three digits
in the version number is still set to the actual PostgreSQL version
number, but the last one is intended to be an ever increasing build number,
which previosly failed when it changed between 1, 2 and 3 digits long values.

Such cases should work, but the grammar failed to accept them because of
our ancient precedence hacks to convince bison that extra parentheses
around a sub-SELECT in an expression are unambiguous.  (Formally, they
*are* ambiguous, but we don't especially care whether they're treated as
part of the sub-SELECT or part of the expression.  Bison cares, though.)
Fix by adding a redundant-looking production for this case.

This is a fine example of why fixing shift/reduce conflicts via
precedence declarations is more dangerous than it looks: you can easily
cause the parser to reject cases that should work.

This has been wrong since commit 3db4056e22b0c6b2adc92543baf8408d2894fe91
or maybe before, and apparently some people have been working around it
by inserting no-op casts.  That method introduces a dump/reload hazard,
as illustrated in bug #7838 from Jan Mate.  Hence, back-patch to all
active branches.

My "fix" for bugs #7578 and #6116 on DROP OWNED at fe3b5eb08a1 not only
misstated that it applied to REASSIGN OWNED (which it did not affect),
but it also failed to fix the problems fully, because I didn't test the
case of owned shared objects.  Thus I created a new bug, reported by
Thomas Kellerer as #7748, which would cause DROP OWNED to fail with a
not-for-user-consumption error message.  The code would attempt to drop
the database, which not only fails to work because the underlying code
does not support that, but is a pretty dangerous and undesirable thing
to be doing as well.

This patch fixes that bug by having DROP OWNED only attempt to process
shared objects when grants on them are found, ignoring ownership.

Backpatch to 8.3, which is as far as the previous bug was backpatched.

This ensures that mapping of non-ascii prompts
to the correct code page occurs.
