Insert via embedded SQL insert statements in our Java code, as opposed
to embedded SQL stored proc invocations, which in turn do the inserts.
The existing code base used the latter approach, which didn't work well
with PG.  I suspect it has to do with PG's stored proc overload
capability.  The short of it is that *any* DBMS you use will have its
own quirks that you become acquainted with and learn to work around.
