I reconsidered --- seeing that autovacuum will eventually be server-side
code, it's not unreasonable for it to use DLList. It's just that it
shouldn't rely on libpq to provide DLList. I've committed a fix
already.
I think I'm going to go ahead and remove dllist.c from libpq, though.
The library will be smaller, faster, and more robust without it, and
8.0 seems like a good time to break anyone who is foolish enough to
be depending on it being in libpq ...
