Oh, so this is to be backpatched?  Yeah, I guess in the backbranch case
it's acceptable to duplicate some bits, but I don't think this gives us
blanket permission to do it in master.  So we need two versions of the

Me neither.  Suggestions welcome.

I have not any problem with these names - it is related what it does.

"libpq_connstring_uri_prefix_length" is 100% correct

"libpq_connstring_is_recognized" is correct too .. the name is maybe long, but this functions are not used 100x per day
