Tom Lane 52c7a44e95 Fix broken list-munging in ecpg's remove_variables().
The loops over cursor argument variables neglected to ever advance
"prevvar".  The code would accidentally do the right thing anyway
when removing the first or second list entry, but if it had to
remove the third or later entry then it would also remove all
entries between there and the first entry.  AFAICS this would
only matter for cursors that reference out-of-scope variables,
which is a weird Informix compatibility hack; between that and
the lack of impact for short lists, it's not so surprising that
nobody has complained.  Nonetheless it's a pretty obvious bug.

It would have been more obvious if these loops used a more standard
coding style for chasing the linked lists --- this business with the
"prev" pointer sometimes pointing at the current list entry is
confusing and overcomplicated.  So rather than just add a minimal
band-aid, I chose to rewrite the loops in the same style we use
elsewhere, where the "prev" pointer is NULL until we are dealing with
a non-first entry and we save the "next" pointer at the top of the
loop.  (Two of the four loops touched here are not actually buggy,
but it seems better to make them all look alike.)

Coverity discovered this problem, but not until 2b41de4a5 added code
to free no-longer-needed arguments structs.  With that, the incorrect
link updates are possibly touching freed memory, and it complained
about that.  Nonetheless the list corruption hazard is ancient, so
back-patch to all supported branches.

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.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download/

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.  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
