I was thinking of DBIx::Class, which will automatically use the DBI
function prepare_cached() for all the queries it generates.
However I discovered this warning hidden deep in the documentation:
"[..] once your schema is instantiated, you should not change the
PostgreSQL schema search path for that schema's database connection. If
you do, Bad Things may happen."
So they are aware of the problem, but unfortunately I hadn't seen that
warning (and I suspect most users won't) until after they've encountered
the problem.
I guess for now I chalk this up to experience and remember not to do it
again! :)
