Thinking about it some more, Yura's argument about PQsendQuery does make
sense -- since what we're doing is replacing the use of a 'Q' message
just because we can't use it when in pipeline mode, then it is
reasonable to think that the replacement ought to have the same
behavior. Upon receipt of a 'Q' message, the portal is closed
automatically, and ISTM that that behavior should be preserved.
That change would not solve the problem he complains about, because IIUC
his framework is using PQsendQueryPrepared, which I'm not proposing to
change. It just removes the other discrepancy that was discussed in the
thread.
The attached patch does it. Any opinions?
