Because in the first step I wanted to minimize the impact
on regression test stderr results. This is what I mentioned
in the initial mail, I stuck to the original wording of ecpg_log()
messages in the split-up parts of the original ECPGdo() and
ecpg_execute() exactly for this reason. The usual policy for
ecpg_log() is to report the function name where it was issued.

I was also thinking about a new feature for pg_regress,
to compare stdout results of two regression tests automatically
so a difference can be reported as an error. It would be good
for automated testing of features in ECPG that can be toggled,
like auto-prepare and fetch readahead. It might come in handy
in other subsystems, too.
