Re: OID wraparound: summary and proposal

Tom,

If we have WITH NOOID, why not having a WITH OID32 and WITH OID64 (or
something of a sort)
as well (being OID32 the default and OID an alias to it)?  
The last would not be available on some systems 
(who will use a system that does not support long long as a database
server anyway?)

The wire protocol will always handle the (tableoid) long form,
references will always store
the long form...  The OID32 would exist only to allow people to save
space in tables that need
OIDs but not the 64 bit version.
