I can hardly say if my bcc-built psql 8.2.0 is reliable. After I got libpq
and pgtcl-ng built, I went ahead and tried psql. Got it to compile,
connected, and did a few simple selects. That's all. I don't normally
build or use psql on Windows, and I don't have any kind of test setup for it.

If you have a suggestion how I might get psql to misbehave, I'll try it
out, but I have a feeling whatever you saw isn't easy to reproduce on
demand.

I should have a cleaned-up patch soon. Turns out most of the work is just
copying updates from the win32.mak files into the bcc32.mak files.
