Thanks! :)

Style note: the project doesn't use // as a comment-to-end-of-line in
C because some supported compilers don't understand it.

Cheers,
David.

Can not execute stored procedures in JDBC with out arguments, I think function retuning void as well, and some other
"minors".Ofc with binary mode.

void returning functions may not be called when binary protocol is
requested currently.  this is annoying: some drivers that wrap libpq
or the protocol directly use the binary mode exclusively and this
causes headaches for them.  put another way, 'void' is the only POD
type missing send/recv.

Yeah, this has been discussed before.

Even though this patch is far past the CF deadline, I'm a bit tempted to
push it into 9.1 anyway, just so we can check off that problem.
