Cool.

I find it mildly scary that we didn't have any other tests verifying the libpq
side of connection termination. Seems like we we maybe should add a few more?
Some simple cases we can do via isolationtester. But some others would
probably require a C test program to be robust...

Wouldn't it make more sense to make res const, rather than unconstifying
&OOM_result?
