Currently the deparse dependent code is ifdef'd so pg_audit compiles and
operates just fine against master. Having the deparse code is nice
because it allows less common object types to log with full-qualified
names but it is in not a requirement for pg_audit.

I'd like to see at least patch 0001 of deparse committed. Not only
because it provides the functionality that deparse uses, but because it
makes event triggers truly useful in pl/pgsql.
