Bruce Momjian a2226ad237 contrib-array.patch
this is an old patch which I have already submitted and never seen
        in the sources. It corrects the datatype oids used in some iterator
        functions. This bug has been reported to me by many other people.

contrib-datetime.patch

        some code contributed by Reiner Dassing <dassing@wettzell.ifag.de>

contrib-makefiles.patch

        fixes all my contrib makefiles which don't work with some compilers,
        as reported to me by another user.

contrib-miscutil.patch

        an old patch for one of my old contribs.

contrib-string.patch

        a small change to the c-like text output functions. Now the '{'
        is escaped only at the beginning of the string to distinguish it
        from arrays, and the '}' is no more escaped.

elog-lineno.patch

        adds the current lineno of CopyFrom to elog messages. This is very
        useful when you load a 1 million tuples table from an external file
        and there is a bad value somehere. Currently you get an error message
        but you can't know where is the bad data. The patch uses a variable
        which was declared static in copy.c. The variable is now exported
        and initialized to 0. It is always cleared at the end of the copy
        or at the first elog message or when the copy is canceled.
        I know this is very ugly but I can't find any better way of knowing
        where the copy fails and I have this problem quite often.

plperl-makefile.patch

        fixes a typo in a makefile, but the error must be elsewhere because
        it is a file generated automatically. Please have a look.

tprintf-timestamp.patch

        restores the original 2-digit year format, assuming that the two
        century digits don't carry much information and that '000202' is
        easier to read than 20000202. Being only a log file it shouldn't
        break anything.

Please apply the patches before the next scheduled code freeze.

I also noticed that some of the contribs don't compile correcly. Should we
ask people to fix their code or rename their makefiles so that they are
ignored by the top makefile?
