+ The status of a transaction will be reported as either

+ <literal>committed</>, or <literal>aborted</>, provided that the
+ transaction is recent enough that the system retains the commit status
+ of that transaction. If is old enough that no references to that
+ transaction survive in the system and the commit status information has
+ been discarded, this function will return NULL. Note that prepared
+ transactions are reported as <literal>in progress</>; applications must

+ need to determine whether the txid is a prepared transaction.
