???  Are you momentarily confusing backend and frontend libpq?

AFAICT the client-side libpq doesn't (and shouldn't) touch signal
handling at all, except for a couple of places in the print routines
that temporarily block SIGPIPE.

Since we deal happily with EINTR for most of the frontend socket calls,
I don't see a reason not to cope with it for connect() too.  I am
somewhat concerned about what exactly it means for a non-blocking
connect, however.  Maybe it doesn't mean anything, and we could treat
it the same as EINPROGRESS.

                        regards, tom lane
