If I did the work for the dlsym() stuff would you and the rest of core@ accept it?
How invasive a change are we talking about? I'd be inclined to reject a patch that makes libpq materially less readable ...

I was thinking of pq_pthread_* calls, and that function would set a static flag for calling either the real pthread_* function or a statically named version in libpgport.a that is a single thread wrapper.
I know, this sucks, but, I don't see any other way, other than linking *ALL* libpq-using programs (including initdb and friends) with -K pthread.
