It's defined in the backend executable, as is GetCurrentTransactionId().
A similar wrapper function to the one shown here:

should work. But I agree with the other folks in this thread who have
questioned whether this is a good idea: backend APIs are known to change
significantly between releases, and making assumptions about how they
behave seems like asking for trouble to me.
