Not if you do it correctly.

regression=# create table foo(f1 int);
CREATE TABLE
regression=# create rule r1 as on insert to foo do also 
regression-# ( select 1; select 2; select 3 );
CREATE RULE
regression=# insert into foo values(42);?column? 
----------       3
(1 row)

INSERT 0 1
regression=# 

This shows BTW that PQexec throws away all but the last select-result;
but they are all delivered to the client.
