   Short Description
   Compile file if using readline-4.2 (PostGres 7.1)
   
   Long Description
   Hello All,
   
   psql will not compile if using readline-4.2 because some functions has been renamed.
   
   Workaround :
   
   I add following define in the beginning of tab-complete.c
   
   #define completion_matches	rl_completion_matches
   #define	filename_completion_function	rl_filename_completion_function
   
   Now I have some "incompatible pointer" warning but it runs ok. (no time to trying to correct these warning :-( )
   
   Bye
   
   Laurent

   Already fixed for 7.1.1.
   
   I do wish the readline guys would pay more attention to stability of
   their API ...
