I have been looking at the ODBC driver and the need for currtid() as

lookup of things, these are actually not needed by the driver as long
as we connect to a server newer than 8.2 able to support RETURNING.
Though currtid2() is necessary even for servers which support RETURNING,
I don't object to remove it.
In which cases is it getting used then?

Keyset-driven cursors always detect changes made by other applications
(and themselves). currtid() is necessary to detect the changes.
CTIDs are changed by updates unfortunately.

   From what I can see there is
zero coverage for that part in the tests.  And based on a rough read
of the code, this would get called with LATEST_TUPLE_LOAD being set,
where there is some kind of bulk deletion involved.  Couldn't that be
a problem?
