Bruce,

have you taken a look at my statistics collector stuff yet?
The view pgstat_activity shows datid, datname, procpid,
usesysid, usename and current_query per backend.

The code still needs some more work, but as it is it's ready
to apply as soon as 7.1 is out the door. All that is totally
OS independant, restricts the display of querystrings to
postgres superusers and works remotely.
