I was actually talking of the single-letter codes that are used on the
protocol layer to tag the different fields of an error or notice result.
That is, instead of
PQresultErrorField(result, 'M')
I'd rather use something like
PQresultErrorField(result, PGEF_MESSSAGE_TEXT)
I'm not actually eager to push out the wordy SQLSTATE macros to the
client, although some might argue for that.
