I would say that so long as you are praying to God in the name of Jesus Christ, then it is not a sin.
Of all the things you could be doing while "relieving yourself" on the toilet, prayer is probably the option that brings the most glory to God. I used to do other things (read, IM, etc.), but now I use the time to pray.

First of all, Sin means in the Bible, 'Missing the mark of perfection.'
So out of respect for God if you can wait till another time, after, that would show that you are respecting our creator through our Lord Jesus Christ. But sometimes maybe that is the only privacy you have from the family if the prayer is for you personally.

Praying anytime, anywhere is never a sin.

I don't see why it would be. I know a lot of people who have prayed while kneeling in front of the toilet, too.

Actually the smell from toilet after you get finished using it enhances the prayer.

I suppose if your constitpated and in pain, praying for relief then it would be totally acceptable.
