Would it be possible to write a server-side PostgreSQL extension using

Yes, feel free to do that :)
[GRIN] Actually, it was a serious question: can Lazarus debug a .so and
would it stand any chance of debugging one which had the sort of
calling convention that Postgres expects an extension to have?
Really don't know, have to study docs for such scenario.
Speculating that Lazarus can, in fact, debug a .so and allowing that the
extension would be invoked by a forked PostgreSQL process, I think the
question boils down to whether Lazarus can attach to a process that it has
not started up.
GDB has a command for it (attach) , so it should be possible.
