Unfortunately PQconninfoOption is part of the exported API of libpq,
so if I rename that field I can expect to break existing application
code :-(. I'm not eager to do that. If it were a strictly internal
change then renaming the field would be OK.
You might look at VC's compiler switches to see if it has a mode
where it actually compiles ANSI C++, and not some other language.
