How do you plan to go about code sharing? I'm wondering if we're going
to have src/pl/common or something like that. Since there's a huge
amount of common code it doesn't make any sense to keep it duplicate.

Also, AFAIR that was the main rejection point for the plpgpsm patch last
time around, so it would be good to discuss this thoroughly.
