Hello.

Reproduced under Windows XP SP3 using Visual C++ 2008 and Delphi. If
PQsetvalue is called with second parameter equals to PQntuples then
memory corruption appears. But it should grow internal tuples array
and populate the last item with provided data. Please see the code:



At first glance (have not tested this theory), looks like pqAddTuple() doesn't zero the newly allocated tuples slots like PQsetvalue() does. PQsetvalue is depending on the unassigned tuple table slots to be NULL to detect when a tuple must be allocated. Around line 446 on fe-exec.c. I never tested this case since libpqtypes never tried to call PQsetvalue on a PGresult created by the standard libpq library.

The solution I see would be to zero the new table slots within pqAddTuple. Any other ideas?
