Neither, unfortunately -- I have a protocol testbed that I use for
this kind of stuff. I'm happy to share once I get it cleaned up, but
it's unlikely to help you in this case since I haven't implemented
gssenc support. Patching the Postgres server itself seems like a good
way to go.

I'm mostly worried that other parts of libpq might assume that a
single call to pqReadData will drain the buffers. If not, great! --
but I haven't had time to check all the call sites.
