We can't really remove that typedef ever, because application code might be using it. Unlikely I concede, but nonetheless it's part of libpq's exposed API.
We might be able to s/pqbool/bool/ in the struct, but I kind of wonder if that wouldn't be an ABI break: at the very least it would lead to subtle changes in code compiled to use the struct. On the whole I see little value in taking any risk here.
