Just to clarify a bit on my solution in case my English didn't get through
properly the first time...
I simply provided two versions of pq_getstr - pq_getstr() with the same
behaviour as before (read until input isn't over by \0) and pq_getstr_bounded()
that reads up to a certain limit or till \0. Functions needed split, IMNSHO,
because grep of the source gave more invocations of pq_getstr, which I was
afaraid to break, so that's why two functions.
I can justify the rest as well, if you wish. If you are positive, be the change
in one function only it would not break anything, then the cleaner solution is
just to change that one function - pg_gestring() invoked directly by
pg_getstr().
