libpq has neither function, AFAIK.

As for persistent backends, it's on the TODO list, but I'm not aware
that anyone has put any work into implementing it. At the moment,
a backend connects to a single database for its entire lifecycle -- so
you'd either need one pool of persistent backends for each database
in use, or you'd need to allow a backend to change the database it is
connected to.

Cheers,

Neil
