Getting smaller. I moved some stuff to the TODO list:

Additions
---------
new functoins and test INET address type(Tom Helbekkmo)
CREATE TABLE test (x text, s serial) fails if no database creation permission
regression test all platforms

Serious Items
------------
change pg args for platforms that don't support argv changes
(setproctitle()?, sendmail hack?)

Docs
----
man pages/sgml synchronization
generate html/postscript documentation
make sure all changes are documented properly

Minor items
-----------
cnf-ify still can exhaust memory, make SET KSQO more generic
permissions on indexes: what do they do? should it be prevented?
allow multiple generic operators in expressions without the use of parentheses
document/trigger/rule so changes to pg_shadow create pg_pwd
large objects orphanage
improve group handling
improve PRIMARY KEY handling
generate postmaster pid file and remove flock/fcntl lock code
add ability to specifiy location of lock/socket files
