I have fixed the issue
<https://github.com/dvarrazzo/psycopg/commit/c08799b0>, but the error
may be unhelpful if the libpq didn't provide a message either.

Do you have a way to reproduce the bug so we can see if there is any
other hint we can provide as exception message? If not, would you mind
testing the patch and see if you get a reasonable error?

Thanks,
