Here is another patch for relatively redundant SQL:2008 functionality.
They standardized in CURRENT_CATALOG and CURRENT_SCHEMA (without
parentheses, as usual) for what we have as current_database() and
current_schema(). They also added SET CATALOG and SET SCHEMA. SET
CATALOG won't work in PostgreSQL, and SET SCHEMA is a subset of SET
search_path.
