Merge from PG master upto d5cb3bab564e0927ffac7c8729eacf181a12dd40
This is the result of the "git merge remotes/PGSQL/master" upto the said commit point. We have done some basic analysis, fixed compilation problems etc, but bulk of the logical problems in conflict resolution etc will be handled by subsequent commits.

# PGAC_CHECK_PYTHON_EMBED_SETUP
# -----------------------------
#
-# Note: selecting libpython from python_configdir works in all Python
-# releases, but it generally finds a non-shared library, which means
-# that we are binding the python interpreter right into libplpython.so.
-# In Python 2.3 and up there should be a shared library available in
-# the main library location.
+# Set python_libdir to the path of the directory containing the Python shared
+# library. Set python_libspec to the -L/-l linker switches needed to link it.
+# Set python_additional_libs to contain any additional linker switches needed
+# for subsidiary libraries.
+#
+# In modern, well-configured Python installations, LIBDIR gives the correct
+# directory name and LDLIBRARY is the file name of the shlib. But in older
+# installations LDLIBRARY is frequently a useless path fragment, and it's also
+# possible that the shlib is in a standard library directory such as /usr/lib
+# so that LIBDIR is irrelevant. Also, some packagers put the .so symlink for
+# the shlib in ${python_configdir} even though Python itself never does.
+# We must also check that what we found is a shared library not a plain
+# library, which we do by checking its extension. (We used to rely on
+# Py_ENABLE_SHARED, but that only tells us that a shlib exists, not that
+# we found it.)
