    No one else is seeing this, so I feel fairly safe in betting that
    it's some bug in your own code.  You didn't do something silly
    like closing stderr, did you?
    
    You might try setting a breakpoint at defaultNoticeProcessor in
    fe-connect.c, and seeing whether control is getting there or not.
    A stack backtrace from the core file would be helpful info as well.

    You were right. This bug disappeared after I recompiled pq lib.
    Never before have I seen such compile troubles. To be sure, I 
    linked libpq against Electric Fence, and it didn't ever complain.
    
    Thank you for cooperation. 
    
    But I have one more bugreport, this time I'm sure it is real :)
