I'm using ODBC from C# .NET, the only connection string settings I do
are UID,PWD,SERVER & DATABASE. I guess all the other settings are
whatever the defaults are. I do not set up a DSN, but use the
driver={PostgreSQL} directly in code.

Most of the calls that are made are connect/execute/fetch/disconnect.
Looking at the ODBC trace output this is most of the SQLxxx calls with a
load of SQLDescribe... liberally sprinked in there.

I did, unfortunately. I don't think any of the code changes have broken
the 8 series driver, there aren't that many changes. I think it is
mainly in the way it is compiled that has introduced problems. More
likely uncovered problems that were already there, but never caught
anyone out.

Cheers,
