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? > Please, can someone confirm this or is this the wrong list? This is the right list.
