It doesn't seem like there's any postgis-specific stuff in the
genericcostestimate2 function besides settings the index correlation at
the end -- it looks like it was pulled straight from the PostgreSQL
source code. After I decided that was probably the case, I pulled the
genericcostestimate function from 7.4b3, changed the index correlation
value to 0.97 like the old function & it compiled fine for me (set up
like I was compiling for 7.3). I haven't tested it fully yet, but it
seems functional. It seems like a simple fix, but does it sound right?
