It might be lag; it'll probably turn up, about 6 seconds after I press *S

Problem:
It shouldn't raise "there is already a transaction in progress" error,
particularly when doing a commit. Remove "rollback to s" and no problem.
Environment:
ecpg (PostgreSQL 8.4.5) 4.5.0
This appears to be a regression; it doesn't occur with ecpg (PostgreSQL
8.3.8) 4.4.1
The bug comes from string-based transaction control in ECPGtrans().
The code cannot distinguish ROLLBACK TRANSACTION and ROLLBACK TO savepoint.
----
if (strncmp(transaction, "commit", 6) == 0 || strncmp(transaction,
"rollback", 8) == 0)
con->committed = true;
else
con->committed = false;
----
I think the string-comparison is unreliable. So, I'd like to replace
the code to use PQtransactionStatus(). I have two patches to do it:
The first one (ecpg-trans-quick_20101014.patch) is a quick fix
that replaces only the above test.
The second one (ecpg-trans-full_20101014.patch) replaces all of
struct connection->committed with PQtransactionStatus().
Which solution is better? Or, another idea?
