However, _REENTRANT is not a Solarisism... On all (recent) UNIX systems it toggles on correct handling for thread specific instances of historically global variables (eg errno). It should be considered for all platforms if libpq is intended to be used from threaded programs. You'll probably find Tomas's code breaks on Linux too...
