I've tried both 6.5 and 6.5.1 and none of them seems to work with
pg_Fetch_Array(), though pg_Fetch_Row() is working okay, also
pg_Fetch_Array DOES actually work as long as you only return single
columns, it is actually possible to have a "SELECT col1 from mytable"
in the pg_Exec() call, and then use fetch_array() to get the result.
Also pg_Fetch_Object() has exactly the same problem; multible columns
make the system (postmaster) return a:
pg_recvbuf: unexpected EOF on client connection

To be exact, the pg_Exec() call does NOT make the system blow up in
itself, it's first when you try a pg_Fetch_Array() or
pg_Fetch_Object() call that the system "surrenders" (have tried
Exec'ing without Fetching).
