Since there has been no response here, I would try reposting this
problem report on pgsql-odbc.  This list is technically for PostgreSQL
bugs proper, and it seems that the pgsql-odbc folks don't follow it
closely.

And to the list: can we PLEASE, PRETTY PLEASE add a note about this on
the bug submission page?  I asked for this before and Tom concurred,
but I'm not aware that anything has been done about it.  What do I
have to do to make this happen?
