Well, the reason it seems peculiar to me is that the current query is in
no way a cursor --- it's just a SELECT in the cases that showed
regression test differences.  I didn't go looking in the code yet, but
I suspect the pg_cursors view is displaying all Portals.  Arguably, it
should only display those that were created by actual cursor commands.
