ERROR CONNECTION POSTGRES 8.1

We have problem connecting to postgres 8.1 database

Example

#include <stdio.h>

main ()
{
 EXEC SQL BEGIN DECLARE SECTION;
 EXEC SQL END DECLARE SECTION;

 EXEC SQL CONNECT TO tcp:postgresql://localhost/basedati_latin AS 
connection1 USER root;
 EXEC SQL CONNECT TO tcp:postgresql://localhost/basedati_arg AS 
connection2 USER root;
 EXEC SQL SET CONNECTION connection1;
 EXEC SQL DISCONNECT connection1;
 EXEC SQL DISCONNECT connection2;
}

We have syntax error when compiling this (syntax used in 8.1 documentation)
If we write

#include <stdio.h>

main ()
{
 EXEC SQL BEGIN DECLARE SECTION;
 EXEC SQL END DECLARE SECTION;

 EXEC SQL CONNECT TO tcp:postgresql://localhost/basedati_latin AS 
connection1 USER root;
 EXEC SQL CONNECT TO tcp:postgresql://localhost/basedati_arg AS 
connection2 USER root;
 EXEC SQL SET CONNECTION TO connection1;
 EXEC SQL DISCONNECT connection1;
 EXEC SQL DISCONNECT connection2;
}

we haven't compiling errors but we obtain [4-1] ERROR:  unrecognized 
configuration parameter "connection".
Can you help us
Thanks in advance
