Tom Lane 53c2bb78db Fix ecpg bugs caused by missing semicolons in the backend grammar.
The Bison documentation clearly states that a semicolon is required
after every grammar rule, and our scripts that generate ecpg's
grammar from the backend's implicitly assumed this is true.  But it
turns out that only ancient versions of Bison actually enforce that.
There have been a couple of rules without trailing semicolons in
gram.y for some time, and as a consequence, ecpg's grammar was faulty
and produced wrong output for the affected statements.

To fix, add the missing semis, and add some cross-checks to ecpg's
scripts so that they'll bleat if we mess this up again.

The cases that were broken were:
* "SET variable = DEFAULT" (but not "SET variable TO DEFAULT"),
  as well as allied syntaxes such as ALTER SYSTEM SET ... DEFAULT.
  These produced syntactically invalid output that the server
  would reject.
* Multiple type names in DROP TYPE/DOMAIN commands.  Only the
  first type name would be listed in the emitted command.

Per report from Daisuke Higuchi.  Back-patch to all supported versions.

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:

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.
