Hi,

* rebase to current master (the AM patch caused some conflicts)
* add alterStatistics to reference.sgml (Alvaro)
* move the sample size discussion to README.stats (Alvaro)
* tweak the inner for loop in CREATE STATISTICS (Alvaro)
* use ObjectAddressSet() to create dependencies in statscmds.c (Petr)
* fix whitespace in alterStatistics.sgml (Petr)
* replace custom MIN/MAX with Min/Max in c.h (Petr)

A few more comments inline:

True. I plan to move this header to
src/include/catalog/pg_mv_statistic_fn.h
which is what the other catalogs do (as pointed by Alvaro). Or do you
think another location/name would be more appropriate?

To align the whole block like this:
nulls[Anum_pg_mv_statistic_stadeps -1] = true;
nulls[Anum_pg_mv_statistic_stamcv -1] = true;
nulls[Anum_pg_mv_statistic_stahist -1] = true;
nulls[Anum_pg_mv_statistic_standist -1] = true;
But I won't fight for this too hard, if it breaks rules somehow.

That is mostly because both 0007 and 0008 tweak the GROUP BY estimates,
but 0008 is not really part of this patch (it's discussed separately in
another thread). I admit it may be a bit confusing.
