How about returning the bits it could set?
int mask = PG_INITSSL | PG_INITCRYPTO;
if (!(PQinitSecure(mask) & PG_INITCRYPTO)) ; // no support for crypto
...OR...
consider a generic PQinit call per system/object/etc..
int PQinit(int which, void *data);
int mask = PG_SECURE_SSL | PG_SECURE_CRYPTO;
PQinit(PG_INIT_SECURE, &mask); // or PG_INIT_OPENSSL
xxx_t xxx = {0, "blah", 12};
PQinit(PG_INIT_xxx, &xxx);
