I'm working through this patch set with a view to committing it.
Attached is some cleanup which is where I got to today, although there
is more to do. One thing I am wondering is why not put the
SimpleDatabaseOidList stuff in fe_utils/simle_list.{c,h} ? That's where
all the similar stuff belongs, and it feels strange to have this inline
in pg_restore.c. (I also don't like the name much - SimpleOidStringList
or maybe SimpleOidPlusStringList might be better).
cheers
