Description:
------------
pg_query doesn't return resource for failed queries - that's not very wise, IMHO (see related bug 18747), but the real problem with this is, that you cannot free failed results.

It may not be noticeable if you have only a few failed queries, but it becomes a serious problem if you have lots. Try the example code.


Reproduce code:
---------------
// assume one table "aaa" with one column "test", that is
// unique (primary key maybe)

$con=pg_connect(...);

for($t=0; $t<10000; $t++)
{
  $ret = pg_query($con, "INSERT INTO aaa (test) VALUES 1");
  // $ret is FALSE (cannot inset duplicate value) => no way to free it
}


Expected result:
----------------
Some way to free the result resource...

Actual result:
--------------
PHP memory consumption grows *really fast*, in my case it even ignores memory_limit setting in php.ini.

Sorry :), correct SQL in pg_query should be:
"INSERT INTO aaa (test) VALUES (1);"
