Thanks.  Patch applied.  @@ comments removed because patch was reviewed.

> Attached is my patch that adds DROP CONSTRAINT support to PostgreSQL.  I

> constraints it may be wise to disable the inheritance feature for a while.
> it is written in an extensible fashion to support future dropping of other
> types of constraint, and is well documented.

> Please send me your comments, check my use of locking, updating of
