Tom Lane 11a0a8b529 Implement find_my_exec()'s path normalization using realpath(3).
Replace the symlink-chasing logic in find_my_exec with realpath(3),
which has been required by POSIX since SUSv2.  (Windows lacks
realpath(), but there we can use _fullpath() which is functionally
equivalent.)  The main benefit of this is that -- on all modern
platforms at least -- realpath() avoids the chdir() shenanigans
we used to perform while interpreting symlinks.  That had various
corner-case failure modes so it's good to get rid of it.

There is still ongoing discussion about whether we could skip the
replacement of symlinks in some cases, but that's really matter
for a separate patch.  Meanwhile I want to push this before we get
too close to feature freeze, so that we can find out if there are
showstopper portability issues.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download/

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.
