Actually, I couldn't reproduce same error on my current system -
although, as I understand, none of the related source files were
modified. (That failure was reported using Debian Sarge 3.1, so
it could be caused by buggy debian libraries - like their buggy
getpw..._r() family.)

I don't have much experience with signal handling but if any hacker will
ever get chance to take a look at SIG_ERR returning pqsignal() calls'
handling, above problem (?) will be clarified.

What are the reasons for thread-safety is not enabled by default? Is
this because related system may not support thread locking to be used in
libpq?
