Thoughts on a few of the remaining items:

Type Mismatch Error in Set Returning Functions - tgl says this is a
deliberate change per link I just added to the wiki. do we think more
is required here to prevent cranky users?
Should we revert the default output format for bytea to the old style
before shipping 9.0.0? - Consensus seems to be "no", thus no action is
required.
don't rename index columns behavior has already broken JDBC - As I
understand it, this is not a code issue, but just something that
driver authors need to be aware of.
Crash in buildfarm for Mac OS X 10.6.3 - Consensus seems to be that
the machine just ran out of disk space - not sure we need to do
anything here.
move 'long long' check to c.h - Is this perhaps addressed by Michael
Meskes commits on May 25th?
Mergejoin null handling - I think this is done:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-committers/2010-05/msg00332.php
Timeline for removal of older than 7.4 links to docs - link on the
wiki page is broken and this doesn't seem like a 9.0 issue anyway.
suggest we remove it.
