Ok, cool, thanks. I think this completes the autovacuum work I wanted
to do for 8.1. AFAIK the only thing that we are still badly missing is
the documentation update. (Matthew, if you are too busy to write it,
please let me know so I know I have to tackle it.)

For 8.2 my first priority (autovac-related) is to eliminate, or at least
alleviate, the need for database-wide vacuums, by keeping track of Xid
wraparound issues on a per-relation basis.
