PooledConnectionImpl problem

Hey all -

I've found a bug in org.postgresql.jdbc2.optional.PooledConnectionImpl.
The problem is that if you create a java.sql.Statement from
PooledConnectionImpl, then call getConnection() from that Statement, you
get back a java.sql.Connection, not a javax.sql.PooledConnection. So,
statement.getConnection().close() actually closes the physical
connection instead of recycling it to the pool.

The underlying reason for this is that PooledConnectionImpl is
implemented as a Proxy and doesn't override createStatement() or
prepareStatement() to substitute itself in as the Connection for the
created Statement. (Of course, overriding these methods is not so simple
- an org.postgresql.Jdbc2Statement requires a Jdbc2Connection in its
constructor, and the Proxy only implements java.sql.Connection.)

I'm hoping that someone familiar with the code can comment on the
following solutions:

1. The way that results from trying to keep the Proxy: Change
AbstractJdbc2Connection from an abstract class to an interface
(IJdbc2Connection) and make the Proxy implement IJdbc2Connection instead
of java.sql.Connection. Tweak Jdbc2Statement, Jdbc2PreparedStatement
etc. to use IJdbc2Connection instead of AbstractJdbc2Connection.

2. The non-Proxy way: Make PooledConnectionImpl an extension of
Jdbc2Connection. This has the disadvantage noted in the current code
that it won't automatically work for subsequent JDBC revisions. I guess
if it'll work to make an AbstractJdbc2PooledConnection, maybe that can
be worked around, too.

3. The lazy, unhelpful way: change my code to stop closing connections
retrieved from getConnection().

If you have any opinions or insight, or if this all just hopelessly
obtuse, let me know.
