This :
git log --pretty=oneline -S'pg_exec_query_string' origin/REL7_4_STABLE
git show  de28dc9a04c4df5d711815b7a518501b43535a26

give me the answer :

commit de28dc9a04c4df5d711815b7a518501b43535a26
Author: Tom Lane <tgl@sss.pgh.pa.us>

   Portal and memory management infrastructure for extended query protocol.   Both plannable queries and utility
commandsare now always executed   within Portals, which have been revamped so that they can handle the   load (they
usedto be good only for single SELECT queries).  Restructure   code to push command-completion-tag selection logic out
ofpostgres.c,   so that it won't have to be duplicated between simple and extended queries.   initdb forced due to
additionof a field to Query nodes. 


wonderful git :)
