OK, on further research it sounds like this might be problem:

http://www.openssl.org/support/faq.html#PROG2

To recap, the error reported was:

OPENSSL_Uplink(00914010,05): no OPENSSL_Applink.

The patch below adds the applink code to libpq. Alejandro; may I send
you an updated libpq.dll to test?

Magnus; assuming this works, we should add it to the server as well I
guess - src/backend/libpq/be-secure.c seem reasonable?
