Would it be accetable to do initialise if the number of connections is
changing from 0, and
tidy if the cumber goes back to 0? Applications that retain a
connection would not
suffer the cost on subsequent connect/disconnect.

The init/term is the tidiest way to do it, but the above might help -
perhaps init could just
add a phantom usecount and work the same way.

If you have a DLL for libpq, could you do it in process attach and
detach? Wouldn't
that be the most common case anyway?
