Again, it'd probably be better to add the necessary API to libpq so
everyone can benefit from it than to give access to low-level libpq
function externally and have all that code in the ODBC driver which it
wouldn't be available for anyone else...

Also, again I contend that there'd really be much 'surgery' required to
extend the current libpq API to meet the requirements of, at least, the
ODBC driver.
