The Informix FDW uses SelfItemPointerAttributeNumber. Luckily the Informix
ROWID is a 4 byte encoded identifier (3 first significant bytes are the
logical page number, last significant bytes is the slot number within that
page). Maybe you can find a way of logically addressing your data, too? It
only needs to fit within 6 bytes, afaik.
