I've got tons of these warnings in my logs... is there a programmatic
way of determining if the current session is in a transaction? Unless
I misunderstood the fix and the commit message, I'm pretty sure that
most of my problem has been fixed in CVS with SET's auto-committing if
it's not in a transaction, but now that there are some intricate rules
with regards to starting transactions, I'd love to provide a DBI
interface into a call that returns whether or not we're in a
transaction to prevent millions of these:

NOTICE: ROLLBACK: no transaction in progress
