Also performed an initial run through of upgrading our Copyright date to
extend to 2005 ... first run here was very simple ... change everything
where: grep 1996-2004 && the word 'Copyright' ... scanned through the
generated list with 'less' first, and after, to make sure that I only
picked up the right entries ...

* tuplesort.h
* Generalized tuple sorting routines.
*
* This module handles sorting of heap tuples, index tuples, or single
* Datums (and could easily support other kinds of sortable objects,
* if necessary). It works efficiently for both small and large amounts
* of data. Small amounts are sorted in-memory using qsort(). Large
* amounts are sorted using temporary files and a standard external sort
* algorithm.
