Re: Rust bindings to pgtypes lib

Possible yes, but in general I'm not a big fan of duplicating code. I
spend too much time to keep those copies in sync.

Yes, but these should be minor. Makefile.global is mostly included for
some rules and other than some includes I don't know what else is taken
from ecpg.

However, there are a couple small files that are taken from teh backend
source tree, like pgstrcasecmp.c

I'm not aware of any other language binding for pgtypeslib.
