It still didn't fix it!  Drongo is now reporting a difference in the
expected trace -- and the differences all seem to be message lengths.
Now that is pretty mysterious, because the messages themselves are
printed identically.  Perl's output is pretty unhelpful, but I wrote them to a
file and diffed manually; it's attached.

So for example when we expect
! # B    123    ErrorResponse     S "ERROR" V "ERROR" C "42601" M "cannot insert multiple commands into a prepared
statement"F "SSSS" L "SSSS" R "SSSS" \\x00
 

we actually get
! # B    173    ErrorResponse     S "ERROR" V "ERROR" C "42601" M "cannot insert multiple commands into a prepared
statement"F "SSSS" L "SSSS" R "SSSS" \\x00
 

[slaps forehead] I suppose the difference must be that the message
length includes the redacted string fields.  So the file in the F file
is 50 chars longer, *kaboom*.  (I'm actually very surprised that this
didn't blow up earlier.)

I'm not sure what to do about this. Maybe the message length for
ErrorResponse/NoticeResponse ought to be redacted too.
