Okay, I wasn't being clear.  In pgbouncer at the END of a commit the
backend will be put into the idle pool.  Please read the following:

Okay.

How do we fix this?  Short term?  Long term?

For this specific case a long term fix might involve
transaction-scoped prepared statements.  Of course that would require
adding this feature on many levels.

Should middleware products track all prepared statements and re-send
those to each backend?  What happens when you have collisions between
names?

Should auto-generated prepared statements use a common hashing method
to insure that we don't recreate the same prepared statement over and
over?
