Yeah, I think an RC is definitely a good idea. In terms of the ANALYZE 
API change, I think we're good because rather than read the type size 
from the PG catalogs, we just always assume it's a fixed sizeof(float4). 
  At least that was my analysis from looking at the code, and a compile 
of 1.5 branch against the latest PostgreSQL git repository didn't throw 
any errors...


ATB,

Mark.
