OK, but step  one is simple, Massimo's patch could possibly be
integrated in two or three hours. And it adds valuable debugging
info.

(Btw., Massimo's patch was the first (and I hope last) very helpful
patch, which for obscure reasons never made into the official
distribution. And it had this simple pid/time patch (not in current
cvs), it had a spinlock patch (not in current cvs), a better deadlock
detection (than 6.2.1, not 6.3) and an async listen option (also the
6.4. version will be much better I gues). That's why we still use
6.2.1p6 + massimo patch).

Yeah, fine. Monitoring the backend is wonderful, but the
pid/timestamp addition is simple and useful too.

Thanks again for a great product!
