Ah right, my bad. The workaround should have been:

EXEC SQL PREPARE test_prep from "SELECT id from test_table where id =
$1";
EXEC SQL EXECUTE test_prep using 2;

Actually I am not so sure.

Correct.

As for the PREPARE statement itself, could you try the attached small
patch please.

This seems to create the correct ECPGPrepare call, but I have not yet
tested it for many use cases.

Thanks.
