What kind of garbage collection do you need to have enabled in order to link?

C is based on manual memory-management, and you can't generally have
garbage-collection in it.  Hence, libpq is *not* garbage-collected and
your statement that it needs "garbage collection enabled" doesn't make
much sense to me.

Are you talking about libpq bindings to some other language, perhaps?

This is the right list.
