I don't have a strong feeling either way, but it occurred to me that
RESULT_OID might be better since it could be used for more purposes,
eg, returning a last-affected-row OID for UPDATE or DELETE. Not that
we do that now, but we wouldn't have to chew up additional keywords
if we wanted to start doing it.
