This patch was committed to the server and I've exposed these field in the
JDBC driver through the somewhat ugly...
} catch (SQLException sqle) {
ServerErrorMessage err =
((PSQLException)sqle).getServerErrorMessage();
System.out.println(err.getTable());
}
The server infrastructure doesn't cover all the error cases I would have
hoped, so you can't just through data at the database and always be able
to produce an intelligent error response to a user, but it's a start.
