That sounds awfully ugly :-(
It occurs to me that a lot of the problem would go away if we allowed
DEALLOCATE of a nonexistent statement to not be an error (seems like
a NOTICE would be be plenty). Then you could just unconditionally
DEALLOCATE anything you were about to PREPARE, if you weren't entirely
sure whether it already existed.
