Hmm, that doesn't bother me. 8.1 is pretty old now, and who knows when
my program will be stable :^)

I guess each approach has some limitations.
The limitations I encountered for log parsing:
- COPY data are not logged.
- Fast Path API calls are not logged (that includes large object functions).
- Unless you have log_min_messages at DEBUG2 or better, you cannot
determine when exactly a prepared statement was parsed.
