Folks,
Please find attached a patch which tells about what the spiffy,
integrated autovacuum now does :)

AFAIK contrib/pg_autovacuum in 8.0 also checked for XID wraparound (or
at least its documentation claims that it does), so I don't see how this
is new functionality.

I think somebody has complained in the past that "verb-ification" of
command names is not good style, so the " ... and <command>VACUUM</>s
the whole ..." should not be used. Maybe "... and executes
<command>VACUUM</> on the whole ..." is better?

Cleaned up:
Also autovacuum now checks
if the database is in danger of xid wraparound and
vacuums the database if needed.
