1. pg_upgrade message

   Peter Eisentraut <peter_e@gmx.net> — 2012-02-15T17:50:41Z

   pg_upgrade prints something like this:
   
   Restoring user relation files
     /var/lib/postgresql/8.4/main/base/35338/37229
   
   But it's not actually "restoring" anything, is it?
   
   Maybe "transferring" would be better?  (Or copying/linking, to be more
   precise.)

   What an excellent idea; I changed it to say link/copy, with the
   attached, applied patch.  The new output is:
   
   	Creating databases in the new cluster                       ok
   	Adding support functions to new cluster                     ok
   	Restoring database schema to new cluster                    ok
   	Removing support functions from new cluster                 ok
   -->	Linking user relation files
   	                                                            ok
   	Setting next OID for new cluster                            ok
   	Creating script to delete old cluster                       ok
