Well libpq like rest of postgres uses gettext for i18N , so i think you need
to have your windows locale set to spanish, have the gettext library
installed and spanish message catalogs available on your system, which will
be if you compiled the source with --enable-nls configure option then it
doesn't matter if the connection was made to the server or not, since libpq
has its own translated messages catalog.
