* Prevent error recursion crashes when encoding conversion fails. * Disallow "CREATE CONVERSION" with the wrong encodings for the specified conversion function. * Fix xpath() to not modify the path expression unless necessary, and to make a saner attempt at it when necessary. * Fix core dump when to_char() is given format codes that are inappropriate for the type of the data argument. * Fix possible failure in text search when C locale is used with a multi-byte encoding. * Fix extreme inefficiency in text search parser's handling of an email-like string containing multiple @ characters. * Fix planner problem with sub-"SELECT" in the output list of a larger subquery. * Fix decompilation of CASE WHEN with an implicit coercion. * Fix possible misassignment of the owner of a TOAST table's rowtype. * Change "UNLISTEN" to exit quickly if the current session has never executed any "LISTEN" command. * Fix PL/pgSQL to not treat INTO after "INSERT" as an INTO-variables clause anywhere in the string, not only at the start; in particular, don't fail for "INSERT INTO" within "CREATE RULE". * Clean up PL/pgSQL error status variables fully at block exit. * Retry failed calls to CallNamedPipe() on Windows. * Add MUST (Mauritius Island Summer Time) to the default list of known timezone abbreviations.
