Because, on all the platforms, libpq_receive() needs to call libpq_select(). Or you mean that we should leave the existing libpq_select() as it is, and create new win32 specific function which waits for the socket to become ready, for this issue? > Just replacing PQexec() with PQsendQuery() is pretty straightforward, we > could put that replacement in a file in port/win32.

I'll try to replace PQexec() first, and PQconnectdb() second if I have enough time.
