After several fixes were backpatches to the 7_3_STABLE branch, we have now
released a 7.3.5.  As the list of Changes since 7.3.4 is quite small, they
are included in this email:

     * Force zero_damaged_pages to be on during recovery from WAL
     * Prevent  some  obscure  cases  of  "variable not in subplan target
       lists"
     * Force  stats  processes  to  detach  from  shared memory, ensuring
       cleaner shutdown
     * Make PQescapeBytea and byteaout consistent with each other (Joe)
     * Added missing SPI_finish() calls to get_tuple_of_interest() (Joe)
     * Fix  for  possible foreign key violation when rule rewrites INSERT
       (Jan)
     * Support qualified type names in PL/Tcl's spi_prepare command (Jan)
     * Make  pg_dump  handle  a  procedural  language  handler located in
       pg_catalog
     * Make  pg_dump  handle  cases  where a custom opclass is in another
       schema
     * Make pg_dump dump binary-compatible casts correctly (Jan)
     * Fix  insertion  of  expressions  containing  subqueries  into rule
       bodies
     * Fix  incorrect  argument  processing  in  clusterdb  script (Anand
       Ranganathan)
     * Fix problems with dropped columns in plpython triggers
     * Repair  problems  with  to_char()  reading  past  end of its input
       string (Karel)
     * Fix GB18030 mapping errors (Tatsuo)
     * Fix  several problems with SSL error handling and asynchronous SSL
       I/O
     * Remove  ability  to bind a list of values to a single parameter in
       JDBC (prevents possible SQL-injection attacks)
     * Fix some errors in HAVE_INT64_TIMESTAMP code paths
     * Fix  corner case for btree search in parallel with first root page
       split

This version, as with most minor versions, does not require a dump/reload
to put into place.

As always, this release is available on all our mirrors, viable at:

And, thanks to David Fetter, is also available via BitTorrent at:
