*scratches head*

How is anyone supposed to answer that question? It is in the process
of reviewing them that one decides whether there are any technical
issues...

Dan started reviewing the dynamic cursorname patch.
He looked at it in the original form and he said that
he's not familiar with the ECPG code.

I have drafted the docs for the generated ECPG grammar
(it was applied mainstream by Michael shortly after
being posted) and have split this patch in question to help
Dan in the review. The patch pieces explain the various
problems about the implementation.

Is it really *that* apparent that I read too much LKML? :-D
