Right. I fixed that by adding WL_SOCKET_READABLE, and handling any
messages that might arrive after the frontend already sent CopyEnd. The
frontend shouldn't send any messages after CopyEnd, until it receives a
CopyEnd from the backend.
In theory, the frontend could already send the next query before
receiving the CopyEnd, but libpq doesn't currently allow that. Until
someone writes a client that actually tries to do that, I'm not going to
try to support that in the backend. It would be a lot more work, and
likely be broken anyway, without any way to test it.
Thanks for the report!
