I just upgraded PostgreSQL from 21 March CVS (rc1?) to May 19 16:21 GMT CVS.
I found that all my cgi/fcg scripts which use libpq++ stopped working in
the vague sense of apache mentioning an internal server error. Relinking
them cured the problem (had to do this in haste => unfortunately no more
information)
-rwxr-xr-x 1 postgres postgres 154795 Mar 21 21:28 libpq++.so.3.1
-rwxr-xr-x 1 postgres postgres 155212 May 21 14:48 libpq++.so.3.2
is the change. The programs using libpq only (not lipq++ as well) worked as
before. I am sorry, I don't have an error message to say how it is broken,
but I do have a slight feeling that maybe the major shared library number
could have been bumped up...
Ah... A clue!
Undefined PLT symbol "ConnectionBad__12PgConnection" (reloc type = 7, symnum

- int ConnectionBad();
...
+ bool ConnectionBad() const;
So I would suggest that the major number be bumped, leaving a small window
since 9 May with a problem..
Cheers,
