Here is a patch for the above, including a documentation update. It
creates a new GUC variable "preload_libraries", that accepts a list in
the form:

   preload_libraries = '$libdir/mylib1:initfunc,$libdir/mylib2'

If ":initfunc" is omitted or not found, no initialization function is
executed, but the library is still preloaded. If "$libdir/mylib" isn't
found, the postmaster refuses to start.

In my testing with PL/R, it reduces the first call to a PL/R function
(after connecting) from almost 2 seconds, down to about 8 ms.

> like that patch still needs some work...

Yeah.  I'm really, really, *really* sorry for submitting it in the state
it was in.  I shouldn't have done that just before moving to another
country.  I found the problem last night, but couldn't get to a Net
connection until now.

The problem is in src/bin/psql/common.c, around line 250-335 somewhere
depending on the version.  The 2nd and 3rd clauses of the "while" loop
condition:

        (rstatus == PGRES_COPY_IN) &&
        (rstatus == PGRES_COPY_OUT))

should of course be:

        (rstatus != PGRES_COPY_IN) &&
        (rstatus != PGRES_COPY_OUT))
