Any way to *not* use server-side prepared statements in Postgresql?

In (say) Python, I can issue:

    psycopg2.connect(...).cursor().execute("select * from account
where id='00100000006ONCrAAO'")

which on the server results in the following log entries:

    2011-07-18 18:56:08 PDT LOG:  duration: 6.112 ms  statement:
select * from account where id='00100000006ONCrAAO'

However, in Java, issuing:

    conn.createStatement().executeQuery("select * from account where
id = '00100000006ONCrAAO'");

results in:

    2011-07-18 18:44:59 PDT LOG:  duration: 4.353 ms  parse <unnamed>:
select * from account where id = '00100000006ONCrAAO'
    2011-07-18 18:44:59 PDT LOG:  duration: 0.230 ms  bind <unnamed>:
select * from account where id = '00100000006ONCrAAO'
    2011-07-18 18:44:59 PDT LOG:  duration: 0.246 ms  execute
<unnamed>: select * from account where id = '00100000006ONCrAAO'

Some searching shows that the PG JDBC driver *always* uses prepared
statements:
http://postgresql.1045698.n5.nabble.com/JDBC-prepared-statements-amp-server-side-prepared-statements-td1919506.html

Is there any way to circumvent server prepared statements? If it makes
a difference, I'm asking regarding PG 8.4 and 9.0. Thanks in advance.
