Hi, before I report this as a bug I'd like to know if it's my code or not. I'm not going to send the whole function
thatstarts the process since it's several KiB in size (but yell if yu want it anyways.) The problem in libpq is with
thevaiable:
 
paramValues
Here's the code involving libpq
----------------------------------------   static const char *insert_str = \          "INSERT INTO mime_types " \
"(mime,ext) VALUES ($1, $2);";
 
-----------------------------------------   //Create the new table.   result = PQexec(pgconn,     "CREATE TABLE
mime_types( "  \   "mime varchar(255) NOT NULL, ext varchar(255) NOT NULL );" );      com_status =
PQresultStatus(result);     if(com_status != PGRES_COMMAND_OK)   {       GGGerrno_str_ptr = PQerrorMessage(pgconn);
 fprintf(stderr, _(&FPCCT), my_name, &"CREATE TABLE mime_types ( "  \                "mime varchar(255) NOT NULL, ext
varchar(255)NOT NULL );" );       fprintf(stderr, _(&PQEMR), GGGerrno_str_ptr);              pg_cleanup(pgconn, "DROP
TABLEmime_types;");              (void)raise(SIGABRT);   }      result = PQprepare(pgconn, INSERTSTMT, insert_str, 2,
¶mtypes);     com_status = PQresultStatus(result);      if(com_status != PGRES_COMMAND_OK)   {
GGGerrno_str_ptr= PQerrorMessage(pgconn);       fprintf(stderr, _(&FPCPS), my_name, insert_str );       fprintf(stderr,
_(&PQEMR),GGGerrno_str_ptr);              pg_cleanup(pgconn, "DROP TABLE mime_types;");
(void)raise(SIGABRT);  }
 

----------------------------------------------------------------                       //Split the string into two.
Malloc.                      errno = argz_create_sep(string_to_be_database, \
 '=', &argz_str, &argz_len );                                              if(errno)                       {
              //This should never happen.                           GGGerrno_str_ptr = strerror(errno);
         fprintf(stderr, _(&ERRRE), my_name, \                                               GGGerrno_str_ptr );
                  (void)raise(SIGABRT);                       }                                              //There
shouldbe no more or less then two strings.                       count = strcnul(argz_str, argz_len);
                          if(2 != count)                       {                           fprintf(stderr, _(&ESS),
my_name,\                               string_to_be_database, argz_len);
      exit(EXIT_FAILURE);                       }                                              result =
PQexecPrepared(pgconn,INSERTSTMT, 2, \                                       argz_str, NULL, paramformats, 0 );
                                    com_status = PQresultStatus(result);
if(com_status!= PGRES_COMMAND_OK)                       {                           GGGerrno_str_ptr =
PQerrorMessage(pgconn);                          fprintf(stderr, _(&FPCID), my_name);
fprintf(stderr,_(&PQEMR), GGGerrno_str_ptr);                                                      pg_cleanup(pgconn,
"DROPTABLE mime_types;");                                                      (void)raise(SIGABRT);
  }                                              free(argz_str);
continue;

I took the following steps.
create a database called test01
start postgresql on localhost port 1234

In the file mime-types.txt only this line was ever processed.
application/1d-interleaved-parityfec=1d-interleaved-parityfec

I then ran
gdb ./test
(gdb)run /home/me/bin/data/mime-types.txt postgresql://localhost:1234/test01
(gdb)bt
