EXPLAIN now comes out as INFO.

Agreed. So you think WARNING makes sense, but let's do it at the right
time. Perhaps that is what Peter was saying anyway.
However, with DEBUG symbol gone, or at least gone after 7.3, I don't see
a big need to add PG_ to the beginning of every elog() symbol. Can I
get some votes on that? DEBUG was our big culprit of conflict with
other interfaces, specifically Perl. With that split into DEBUG1-5, do
we need to prefix the remaining symbols?
