parent- Add support for version 2 audio atoms in QuickTime containers (diff)
Update postgresql with latest patch release.
A critical fix repairs an error in ReadBuffer that can cause data loss due to overwriting recently-added pages. This applies to the 8.1 and 8.0 branches on all platforms. Note that this update might require a reindex of textual columns under certain conditions; please see UPDATING. Other fixes included are: -- Character string locale comparison bug. This may require a REINDEX on text column indexes in some locales, such as Hungarian. -- Prevent accidental changes of locale by plperl -- Two fixes for Japanese encodings -- Two fixes for COPY CSV -- Fixes for functions returning RECORD -- Fixes to autovacuum, dblink and pgcrypto

+ All postgresql versions have been updated. These patch releases fix
+ a problem with character string comparisons for locales that
+ consider different character combinations as equal, such as
+ Hungarian. This might require "REINDEX" to fix existing indexes on
+ textual columns. Also, if plperl is used, a "REINDEX" might be
+ required under certain conditions. Check the HISTORY file in the
+ source for details.
