I think there is a good argument that PQinitSSL(X) where X > 1 would work fine for more fine-grained control. The new libpq init function idea was interesting, but having a documented solution for WSAStartup()/WSACleanup() usage, we now don't have another libpq init use-case so it is hard to suggest a new libpq function.
If you look back through the list, the PQinit idea was offered up several times while discussing WSA* stuff. There were few buyers. I don't see how having or not having a documented solution for WSA* usage would make a bit of difference.
I am figuring we have to keep the current behavior and see what happens after 8.4; the new documentation should make the behavior clear and perhaps trigger other users to report suggestions.
This is not a battle I find worth fighting. But I am having trouble staying completely quiet; I typically have this issue when I disagree :) This patch merely documents the problem, when another fully documented working patch "fixed" it; following the discussions on the list.
