    131        silently rolls the transaction back and answers PGRES_COMMAND_OK with the
    132        command tag ROLLBACK.  GNUNET_PQ_eval_result() cannot tell that apart from
    133        a real commit, so every caller took the success path for a transaction
    134        whose writes are gone.  Report it as a soft error instead: sessions run
    135        SERIALIZABLE, so the overwhelmingly likely cause is an unhandled
    136        40001/40P01 for which retrying is right; a caller with a retry loop gives
    137        up after MAX_RETRIES and fails visibly, one without fails immediately.
    138 
    139        The *success* path deliberately keeps returning exactly what
    140        GNUNET_PQ_eval_prepared_non_select() returned before.  That function is
    141        GNUNET_PQ_exec_prepared() + GNUNET_PQ_eval_result() plus a
    142        strtol(PQcmdTuples()) step that only runs when the status is already
    143        GNUNET_DB_STATUS_SUCCESS_NO_RESULTS, and PQcmdTuples() on a COMMIT command
    144        tag is the empty string -- so that step yields 0, which is
    145        GNUNET_DB_STATUS_SUCCESS_NO_RESULTS again. */
