OK, fair cop.  Says it in the MSDN online version but not in the SDK 6.1 
version. :-(  Some helper(s)
must start threads I guess.

Re the counting and doing it on first/last socket - of course WSAStartup 
counts internally. Prsumably
its only slow when the count is actually going to zero?

Is there a need for a new API to control this - can't you just interpret 
another parameter keyword
in PQconnectdb (or the pgoptions string in PQsetdbLogin I guess)?  
(Having said that, how
do you control send and receive buffer sizes?  Presumably nagle is 
always disabled, but those
features could be controlled the same way?  Would presumably allow 
PGOPTIONS to be
parsed too, though docs 30.12 says that does runtime options for the 
server, though
PQconnectdb in 30.1 suggests that it might be parsed for the client 
connect too.  Maybe.).
