It just looks for complete statements. From memory it relates to the 
possibility that TOC entries can have more than one statement, or it may 
relate to handling COPY statements. I think it has to look for 
PQresultStatus(...) == PGRES_COPY_IN for each statement it executes, so it 
needs to pass statements one at a time.
