Tom Lane 39fc1fb07a Remove logic in XactLockTableWait() that attempted to mark a crashed
transaction as aborted.  Since we only call XactLockTableWait on XIDs
that we believe to be currently running, the odds of this code ever
actually firing are minimal.  It's certainly unnecessary, since a
transaction that's not either running or committed will be presumed
aborted anyway.  What's more, it's not hard to imagine scenarios where
this could result in corrupting pg_clog: for instance, if a bogus XID
somehow got passed to XactLockTableWait.  I think the code probably
dates from the ancient era when we didn't have TransactionIdIsInProgress;
back then it may have been necessary, but now I think it's a waste of
cycles and potentially dangerous.  Per discussion with Qingqing Zhou
and Karsten Hilbert.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================
  
This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

The JDBC, ODBC, C++, Python, and Tcl interfaces have been moved to the
PostgreSQL Projects Web Site at http://gborg.postgresql.org for separate
maintenance.  A Perl DBI/DBD driver is available from CPAN.

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the
file HISTORY.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/.  For more information look at our web
site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
