I'm fresh in the code, but this has solved my issues with PQconnect* failing when interrupted by signals. Some of it is sloppy and not to my liking yet, but I'm still digging through to see if anything else needs touched. Comments appreciated.
Honestly, I'm a bit surprised that this issue hasn't been encountered before. Summary: * changes to connect() sections to handle errno=EINTR. this solves libpq PQconnect* family problems if the connect is interrupted by a signal such as SIGALRM. * not all read/recv/write/send calls have been updated David
