Please sync postgresql-8.1 (main) from Debian unstable (main).

Changelog since current feisty version 8.1.5-2:

postgresql-8.1 (8.1.6-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Urgency medium since this fixes some important bugs that should reach
    Etch.
  * New upstream bugfix release:
    - Fix pg_restore to handle a tar-format backup that contains large
      objects (blobs) with comments.
    - Fix "failed to re-find parent key" errors in "VACUUM".
    - Clean out "pg_internal.init" cache files during server restart.
      This avoids a hazard that the cache files might contain stale data
      after PITR recovery.
    - Fix race condition for truncation of a large relation across a
      gigabyte boundary by "VACUUM".
    - Fix bug causing needless deadlock errors on row-level locks.
    - Fix bugs affecting multi-gigabyte hash indexes.
    - Fix error when constructing an ARRAY[] made up of multiple empty
      elements.
    - Fix ecpg memory leak during connection.
    - to_number() and to_char(numeric) are now STABLE, not IMMUTABLE, for
      new initdb installs. This is because lc_numeric can potentially change
      the output of these functions.
    - Improve index usage of regular expressions that use parentheses.
      This improves psql \d performance also.
    - Update timezone database to 2006p: This affects Australian and Canadian
      daylight-savings rules in particular.
