	I use PHP and Postgres together quite a bit, and find the APIs
complete enough for most things.  However, just last week I implemented

pg_lolseek($loid, $offset $whence)
and
pg_lotell($loid)

For some stuff that we are working on.  They are pretty straightforward,
and I can package them up and submit them if someone wants.
