Is this Abhijit's patch to add PQprepare() and PQsendPrepare()?

http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2004-10/msg00142.php

I'm anxious to see this get in 8.0 so that the prepared query support can be
used by DBD::pg and other libpq-based applications and drivers.

I'm not sure whether the patch he sent is adequate, I looked at it myself and
was a bit skeptical. But he said my concerns were misplaced. If somebody more
authoritative could look at it I expect he would be happy to take any feedback
into account and keep working on it. But if nobody says anything then I'm sure
nothing's going to happen and the binary prepared queries will be useless for
DBD::Pg and other libpq-based drivers.
