No kidding :-(. The parser is bad enough but the datatype library is
an order of magnitude worse. I don't have a great solution at hand
though. The backend utils/adt/ code gets to rely on the backend's
error handling and memory management protocols, which I surely do
not propose to remove, but how could we keep common sources when
ecpglib has to work in a far less friendly environment?
