Hi,
I noticed heapam.h is included in way too many places. This is bad IMHO
because heapam.h itself includes a lot of other headers.
A lot of these are easy to fix; the source files just need to include
some other headers. Standard cleanup, I don't think anybody would
object to that. For example,
Index: src/backend/access/gin/ginvacuum.c

Others are more conflictive. For example syncscan.c is keeping the
prototypes for its own functions on heapam.h. Also pruneheap.c and
rewriteheap.c. As a result, not only themselves need to include
heapam.h (without any other need for it), but they force some other
files into including heapam.h to get their prototypes. I think this is
a mistake; I propose splitting those prototypes to their own files, and
#including those as appropriate.
Objections?
