Yes, I like that. Could you please also lookup:

- the whenever statement
- and check resp. tell me whether the cursor behaviour is correct. Currently
the declare statement is send to the backend via PQexec. The open statement
is ignored and the fetch is executed as fetch via PQexec. I think the data
shouldn't be processed before the cursor is opened. But I do not know
what PostgreSQL does with the declare command.
