[postgis-devel] Aggregates

Personally if you got rid of those GArrays I'd be fine since it looks like you are introducing new versions with same functionality.

While you are building your big spreadsheet of doom.  Don't forget to add those 20 someodd functions we really want to get rid of.

I've flipped all the aggregate functions that used to build arrays the
old way to use the new code (at r3565).

ST_MakeLine( geometry )
ST_Polygonize( geometry )
ST_Collect( geometry )
ST_Union( geometry )
ST_Accum( geometry )

These are all on the new code now. For comparison, I've left behind
two legacy implementations, that will disappear before release:

ST_Accum_old( geometry )
ST_Union_old( geometry )

I also thought that

ST_MakeLine( geometry[] )
ST_Polygonize( goemetry[] )
ST_Collect( geometry[] )
ST_Union( geometry[] )

were all more "in the spirit of PostgreSQL" so I have added them.

I will agitate for the removal of

ST_Makeline_Garray( geometry[] )
et al

later, as I build my big spreadsheet-of-doom.
