Andrew Dunstan 1a7c2f9dea Various small improvements and cleanups for PL/Perl.
- Allow (ineffective) use of 'require' in plperl
    If the required module is not already loaded then it dies.
    So "use strict;" now works in plperl.

- Pre-load the feature module if perl >= 5.10.
    So "use feature :5.10;" now works in plperl.

- Stored procedure subs are now given names.
    The names are not visible in ordinary use, but they make
    tools like Devel::NYTProf and Devel::Cover much more useful.

- Simplified and generalized the subroutine creation code.
    Now one code path for generating sub source code, not four.
    Can generate multiple 'use' statements with specific imports
    (which handles plperl.use_strict currently and can easily
    be extended to handle a plperl.use_feature=':5.12' in future).

- Disallows use of Safe version 2.20 which is broken for PL/Perl.

- Assorted minor optimizations by pre-growing data structures.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================
  
This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	http://www.postgresql.org/download

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the
file HISTORY.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
http://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
