78114cd4d4 Further planner/optimizer cleanups. Move all set_tlist_references 
and fix_opids processing to a single recursive pass over the plan tree

until the very end, it's possible to get rid of the klugy var_equal and
match_varid partial-matching routines, and just use plain equal()
throughout the optimizer.  This is a step towards allowing merge and
hash joins to be done on expressions instead of only Vars ...

SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL READ COMMITTED;

Also note that SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL change
isolevel for _current_ transaction, in accordance with
standard, not for session (ALTER SESSION is used in Oracle,
but it's not implemented currently).

And I would don't mention SET XACTISOLEVEL TO ...
form at all.

Please update set.sgml - I failed to understand all these

SET TIME ZONE { '<REPLACEABLE CLASS="PARAMETER">
