types of unspecified parameters when submitted via extended query protocol. This worked in 8.2 but I had broken it during plancache changes. DECLARE CURSOR is now treated almost exactly like a plain SELECT through parse analysis, rewrite, and planning; only just before sending to the executor do we divert it away to ProcessUtility. This requires a special-case check in a number of places, but practically all of them were already special-casing SELECT INTO, so it's not too ugly. (Maybe it would be a good idea to merge the two by treating IntoClause as a form of utility statement? Not going to worry about that now, though.) That approach doesn't work for EXPLAIN, however, so for that I punted and used a klugy solution of running parse analysis an extra time if under extended query protocol.
