Subject: [PATCHES] libpq patch

Hi,

here is a small patch which fixes two problems:

1. libpq/libpq-fe.h:

somehow disappeared the line

#define DefaultOption ""

now compilation stops with an error complainig an
unknown DefaultOption (970508).


2. Same patch as I sent already twice, but it never made it
  into the source tree:  there is no default value for
  AuthType and Password. This way any libpq-application
  (i.e. perl-scripts) which use the function PQconnectdb
  will break with PostgreSQL-6.1. The patch simply uses
  an empty string as default value.
