If you're not sure then it would be better to post to another mailing
list like pgsql-general or one of the more specific lists.  That
would expose your question to a larger pool of expertise, and it
would minimize the number of false bug reports.

PQconnectdb() returns a PGconn * -- why are you assigning the return
value to an int?  After PQconnectdb() you should be calling PQstatus()
and checking its return value.  If the status isn't CONNECTION_OK
then PQerrorMessage() should return a string saying why.  See the
libpq documentation for more information:
