   <code class="function">SPI_prepare_cursor</code> is identical to
   <code class="function">SPI_prepare</code>, except that it also allows specification
   of the planner's <span class="quote"><span class="quote">cursor options</span></span> parameter.  This is a bit mask
   having the values shown in <code class="filename">nodes/parsenodes.h</code>
   for the <code class="structfield">options</code> field of <code class="structname">DeclareCursorStmt</code>.
   <code class="function">SPI_prepare</code> always takes the cursor options as zero.
  </p><p>
   This function is now deprecated in favor
   of <code class="function">SPI_prepare_extended</code>.
