versions of our database system, including 9.5.4, 9.4.9, 9.3.14, 9.2.18 and
9.1.23. This release fixes two security issues. It also patches a number of
other bugs reported over the last three months. Users who rely on security
isolation between database users should update as soon as possible. Other users
should plan to update at the next convenient downtime.
If you are using the ICU patch, please consult UPDATING.
Improve periodic cleanup, suggested by claudius (at) ambtec.de. [1]

Security Fixes for Regular Expressions, PL/Java
This release closes security hole CVE-2016-0773, an issue with regular
expression (regex) parsing. Prior code allowed users to pass in expressions
which included out-of-range Unicode characters, triggering a backend crash.
This issue is critical for PostgreSQL systems with untrusted users or which
generate regexes based on user input.
The update also fixes CVE-2016-0766, a privilege escalation issue for users of
PL/Java. Certain custom configuration settings (GUCS) for PL/Java will now be
modifiable only by the database superuser

pg_upgrade. Other where added in 9.5, but the port failed to install them.
Make sure they are properly installed by the correct port (-client or -server) [1]
Remove unused and hence confusing OSSP_UUID parameters from Makefile [2]
Add options to allow user to be set for the backup script in periodic.
Add this option only to 9.5 for now. It will be updated to other servers at
next regular patch release. [3]
The path to perl in hard coded into pgxs/src/Makefile.global which is
then installed. Hence, we must depend on perl when that file is installed.
