OK. I just took a really fast look at that the bki patch and it looks
pretty nice, so I hope you're able to get it in. Of course, I'm biased
because it's based on earlier work of my own, but biased != wrong.

A lot more work will need to be done to escape the insanity that is
our current method of handling system catalogs, but this seems like a
good step in the right direction.
I also observe that it applies cleanly over my current spcoptions
branch, so the merge conflicts might be a non-issue.
