I pushed these. Thanks for the reviews and patches!

The symbol export stuff has also been pushed (discussed in a separate thread).

It's nice to see the meson patchset length reduced by this much.

I pushed a rebased version of the remaining branches to git. I'll be on
vacation for a bit, I'm not sure I can get a new version with further cleanups
out before.


Given that we can't use src/tools/gen_versioning_script.pl for the make build,
due to not depending on perl for tarball builds, I'm inclined to rewrite it
python (which we depend on via meson anyway) and consider it a meson specific
wrapper?


Bilal, Peter previously commented on the pg_regress change for ecpg, perhaps
you can comment on that?
