Maybe, but we've not used it before anywhere in Postgres, so I don't
see a reason to start now. Especially since C is not the native

Agreed. The psqlODBC code is littered with comma expressions, and the
first time I saw it, it took me a really long time to figure out what
"if (foo = malloc(...), foo) { } " meant. And I consider myself quite
experienced with C.
