Thanks for updating the patch!
I found the problem that the patch changed the behavior of
ALTER TABLE SET TABLESPACE so that it moves also
the index on the specified table to new tablespace. Per the
document of ALTER TABLE, this is not right behavior.
I think that it's worth adding new option for concurrent rebuilding
into reindexdb command. It's better to implement this separately
from core patch, though.
You need to add the description of locking of REINDEX CONCURRENTLY
into mvcc.sgml, I think.
+ Rebuild a table concurrently:
+
+<programlisting>
+REINDEX TABLE CONCURRENTLY my_broken_table;
Obviously REINDEX cannot rebuild a table ;)
