Hi,

While i'm working on a ecpg patch I found a bug in ecpg code. The simple
program above could reproduce it. But basically it crashes (segfault)
because it's trying to use a inexistent connection when we're preparing
a statement. Don't know if it deserves a ecpg_log() message. A possible
fix is attached.

#include <stdio.h>

exec sql whenever sqlerror sqlprint;

int main(void)
{
    exec sql begin declare section;
    char cmd[128];
    exec sql end declare section;

    exec sql connect to euler as main;
    sprintf(cmd, "select * from foo");
    exec sql prepare f from :cmd;
    exec sql disconnect;

    return 0;
}


(gdb) bt
#0  0xb7ebd9cd in find_prepared_statement (name=0x8048819 "f", con=0x0,
prev_=0xbfccc6dc) at
