Doesn't log_statement = ALL get the job done for you?  If you need to
correlate queries with results then I guess not; there is no provision
for logging query results.  The nearby suggestion to use a packet
sniffer is probably your only recourse for that.  I'd suggest that you
may also need to set the driver to use protocol version 2, so that all
the queries come in in plain text --- otherwise you'll have some
difficulty interpreting the packet streams ...
