Tom Lane 2f5c37e94a Fix a passel of ancient bugs in to_char(), including two distinct buffer 
overruns (neither of which seem likely to be exploitable as security holes,
fortunately, since the provoker can't control the data written).  One of
these is due to choosing to stomp on the output of a called function, which
is bad news in any case; make it treat the called functions' results as
read-only.  Avoid some unnecessary palloc/pfree traffic too; it's not
really helpful to free small temporary objects, and again this is presuming
more than it ought to about the nature of the results of called functions.
Per report from Patrick Welche and additional code-reading by Imad.

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/.
