Thank-you, Mike. Before posting, I did do some searches on various
pgsql mail lists and rummaged through the docs, but I didn't find any
mention of this. Not to say it isn't there. But if it is, it isn't
very obvious. I'd have expected it to be in the "libpq C++ Binding"
section of the Programmer docs. It isn't.

Last night in I downgraded to 6.5.2, and my test app linked fine WITHOUT
the -lpq option! Is that link option requirement specific to 6.5.3?

Cheers,
Richard
