The only solution is to hack core.  Create a definition of 
db_status_report in database.inc will will in turn call one of 
db_status_report_mysqli() or db_status_report_pgsql() dependent on the 
active database type.  You change the name of the db_status_report 
function in each of the database.mysqli.inc and database.pgsql.inc 
files accordingly.
