problem with libpq7.3.3/encrypted

I believe we have a problem with libpq 7.3.3 with encryption. I
currently don't have a 7.3.3/ssl system running, but this has been
reported by Christian Ruediger Bahls, who traced it, and Dave Page.

When running pgAdmin3 over a ssl encrypted connection, it will hang,
even for very small queries with a single result. As soon as
postgresql.conf ssl=false is set, or a 7.3.2 non-encrypting libpq is
used, everything's working fine. There's a complete gdb dump at

http://dmv.math.uni-rostock.de/downloads/gdb_trace.txt

The query string is truncated in that log, it should read like this:

SELECT rw.oid, rw.ev_class, rulename, relname, nspname, description, is_instead, ev_type, ev_action, ev_qual
pg_get_ruledef(rw.oid) AS definition
FROM pg_rewrite rw
JOIN pg_class cl ON cl.oid=rw.ev_class
JOIN pg_namespace nsp ON nsp.oid=cl.relnamespace
LEFT OUTER JOIN pg_description des ON des.objoid=rw.oid
WHERE ev_class = 12345
ORDER BY rulename
