This has been committed.

About the subsequent patches:

Is there any sense in dealing with the libpq and backend patches 
separately in sequence, or is this split just for ease of handling?

(I suppose the 0004 "review comments" patch should be folded into the 
respective other patches?)

What could be the next steps to keep this moving along, other than stare 
at the remaining patches until we're content with them? ;-)
