Mostly. There seems to still be a problem with the network function as
I mentioned in the messages to patches. Also, as I mentionwed there,
the output of the functions should be left justified, not right. Also,
I think the netmasklen function should be called masklen. Given the
polymorphic nature of the type system and the fact that it is being
applied to inet or cidr types, I don't think there is any confusion
using the shorter, more familiar term.

I just received that. I'll get to work. I also have most of the queries
for the regression tests which I'll send along shortly.

darcy=> select '1.2.3.4/32'::cidr;
?column?
----------
1.2.3.4/32
(1 row)
darcy=> select '1.2.3.4/32'::inet;
?column?

Perhaps we should hand out plastic sheeting like at Gallagher concerts
just in case. :-)
