Bug description:  pg_result_error is complete useless

The function pg_result_error() supposedly gives the error 
message for some failed SQL query after calling pg_query() 
with that query. It must be given a resource identifier of 
the result to get the error message for that result 
(sounds alright). 
 
However, function pg_query() returns FALSE if a query 
failed instead of a result identifier, so what can 
possibly be passed to pq_result_error() in this case? The 
query certainly went wrong, but there's no way to check 
exactly what, as there is no resource identifier... 
 
Almost looks like a Catch 22.
