>Increment the major version number of all interface
libraries (Bruce)</P

>This should have been done in 8.0.0. It is required so 7.4.X versions
of PostgreSQL client applications, like <SPAN

can be used on the same machine as 8.0.X applications. This might require
re-linking user applications that use these libraries.</P

>fsync_writethrough</TT
> (Magnus, Bruce)</P
><P
>This setting causes <SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>PostgreSQL</SPAN
> to write through
any disk-drive write cache when writing to WAL.
This behavior was formerly called <TT
CLASS="OPTION"
>fsync</TT
>, but was
renamed because it acts quite differently from <TT
CLASS="OPTION"
>fsync</TT
> on other
platforms.</P

CLASS="VARNAME"
>wal_sync_method</TT
> setting of
<TT
CLASS="OPTION"
>open_datasync</TT
> on Windows, and make it the default for that
platform (Magnus, Bruce)</P
><P
>Because the default is no longer <TT
CLASS="OPTION"
>fsync_writethrough</TT
>,
data loss is possible during a power failure if the disk drive has
write caching enabled. To turn off the write cache on Windows,
from the <SPAN

then <TT

CLASS="ACRONYM"

<ACRONYM
CLASS="ACRONYM"
>2Q</ACRONYM

will appear in 8.1.</P
