I hope so, thanks.

Hmm, it still applied for me, except when I forgot to gunzip the
larger patches. In any case, I've attached version 4 which contains
some recent improvements. It was rebased against master as of
6719b238e8f0ea. If it doesn't apply for you please let me know the
details.

New in this patch set:
-Remove code duplication and improve modularity in data parsing
-Update README at appropriate points
-Shift some hunks around to make patches more focused and readable
-Comment and commit message editing
-Patch 11 reduces indentation
-Patch 12 moves all the toast/index commands into the individual
catalog headers and simplifies some #includes (Note: I failed to shave
the yak of selinux, so the #include changes for contrib/sepgsql are
untested)

At this point, I think it's no longer a WIP, and will only make
further changes based on review or if I find a mistake.

Left for future projects:
-SQL generation for querying source bootstrap data
-Generating pg_type #defines
