Since there are 3 pcs of s/w involved (all 3 with many lines of C-code)
and non of them are really well tested in a threaded environment
it is a real kludge.
I understand anyone who do not want to stick his head into that,
I pulled my own back and started experimenting with my "pure perl"
interface instead.
Your work cleaning up libpq will be appriciated by lots of programmers
out there.
As a status report on my module, it now fetch records OK too.
On the ToDo-list:
* INET-socket support (now it is Unix domain sockets only)
* explicit cursor support
* BLOB-support
* clean-up of error handling/reporting
* test suite
* DBI-DBD layer on top of standard module
I will release a snap-shot as soon as it is cleaned up a bit and
somewhat more tested.
