* This function just reports whether this file was compiled for frontend
* or backend environment. We need this because in some systems, mainly
* ELF-based platforms, it is possible for a shlib (such as libpq) loaded
* into the backend to call a backend function named XYZ in preference to
* the shlib's own function XYZ. That's bad if the two functions don't
* act identically. This exact situation comes up for many functions in
* src/common and src/port, where the same function names exist in both
* libpq and the backend but they don't act quite identically. To verify
* that appropriate measures have been taken to prevent incorrect symbol
* resolution, libpq should test that this function returns true.
