This certainly looks much better! Thanks for getting it done so
quickly.
I didn't review the code super closely. I do see a compiler warning:
/pgsql/source/pipeline/src/interfaces/libpq/libpq-trace.c: In function
'pqTraceOutputNchar':
/pgsql/source/pipeline/src/interfaces/libpq/libpq-trace.c:373:2: warning:
argument 1 null where non-null expected [-Wnonnull]
memcpy(v, buf + *cursor, len);
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
and then when I try to run the "libpq_pipeline" program from the other
thread, I get a crash with this backtrace:
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

The attached patch fixes it, though I'm not sure that that's the final
form we want it to have (since we'd alloc and free repeatedly, making it
slow -- perhaps better to use a static, or ...? ).

Essentially, you're proposing Kevlar shoes as a solution for the problem
that you want to walk around carrying a loaded gun aimed at your foot.
