I guess the main reason is that I didn't find how to do it. With that
pointer, I can probably redo it.
The other thought is that you're not going to have much use of this if
you don't have pgstat anyway - how are you going to find out which
backends actually exist?
But I could certainly give it a try to recode it on that code.
