We have started 7.5 development so we can now work with you to complete
this item. Your question was what does statement_timestamp() show.
That has been discussed and it is a little tricky. The idea is that is
should be start of a single statement that arrives from the user or is
requestd by a client. However, this gets muddled because SPI can issue
queries and plpgsql functions can too.
I am now thinking of doing it in exec_simple_query().
I see your mailbox is now not availble so perhaps we will have to
continue this work ourselves.
