Tom Lane 2b74fcedc4 Widen the nLocks counts in local lock tables from int to int64. This
forestalls potential overflow when the same table (or other object, but
usually tables) is accessed by very many successive queries within a single
transaction.  Per report from Michael Milligan.

Back-patch to 8.0, which is as far back as the patch conveniently applies.
There have been no reports of overflow in pre-8.3 releases, but clearly the
risk existed all along.  (Michael's report suggests that 8.3 may consume lock
counts faster than prior releases, but with no test case to look at it's hard
to be sure about that.  Widening the counts seems a good future-proofing
measure in any event.)

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.

The JDBC, ODBC, C++, Python, and Tcl interfaces have been moved to the
PostgreSQL Projects Web Site at http://gborg.postgresql.org for separate
maintenance.  A Perl DBI/DBD driver is available from CPAN.

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.  Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the
file HISTORY.  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.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/.  For more information look at our web
site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
