I reviewed the 0002 patch, finding one bug (in int8_sum) and a few
more calls of int8_numeric that could be converted. I think the
attached updated version is committable, and I'd recommend going
ahead with that regardless of the rest of this. I hadn't realized
how many random calls of int8_numeric and int4_numeric we'd grown,
but there are a lot, so this is nice cleanup.
I continue to think that we can't commit 0003 in this form, because
of the breakage that will ensure in stored views. As I said upthread,
we should leave the existing SQL-exposed functions alone, invent
new ones that return numeric, and alter the parser to translate
EXTRACT constructs to the new functions. This approach would also
provide an "out" for anyone who does complain about the performance
cost --- they can just continue to use the old functions.
regards, tom lane
