Summary: Buffer query in MainLoop of psql is never flushed

System Configuration
--------------------
  Operating System   : Linux ELF

  PostgreSQL version : 6.4.2

  Compiler used      : gcc

Hardware:
---------
P 120
but doesn't matter

Versions of other tools:
------------------------


--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Problem Description:
--------------------
The buffer query passed as a parameter to MainLoop in the
program psql is never flushed after a query, so the buffer
will grow until it reaches the maximum size and the tool
will refuse any query.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Test Case:
----------
Pipe a SQL-Script with more than 20k to psql.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Solution:
---------
After a very quick look i patched all places where
querySend is set true with the line:
query[0]=0;
