Commit 0b9466fce added a dependency on fe_memutils' pnstrdup() inside
informix.c. This adds an exit() path in a library, which we don't
want. (Unlike libpq, the ecpg libraries don't have an automated check
for that, but it makes sense to keep them to a similar standard.) The
ecpg code can already handle failure results from the *strdup() call
by itself.

descriptor statements have the following shortcomings
- input descriptors (USING DESCRIPTOR <name>) are not supported
Reason: to fully support dynamic SQL the frontend/backend communication
should change to recognize input parameters.
Since this is not likely to happen in the near future and you
can cover the same functionality with the existing infrastructure
(using s[n]printf), I'll leave the work to someone else.
