I'm not sure what to do about that.

I could extend PGresult to hold ParameterDescription information, then
provide accessor functions à la PQnfields/PQfformat. But that would be
a fairly intrusive change. And I shudder to even think about trying to
reuse the existing PGresult fields/accessors to do the job.

Do you have any suggestions?
