When I was "playing" with this the other day I noticed that bcc32.mak caused
blibpq.dll to be created, rather than libpq.dll. With the major caveat that I am
not an experienced C/C++ deveopler: I suggest building psql.exe using the
Borland tools, then investigating the makefiles to see how they were causing the
blibpq stub to be linked.
