Receiving SIGPIPE for PQfinish()

Hi,

I've a problem when calling PQfinish() on a broken connection.
 Breakpoint 1, main () at finish.c:9 9               PGconn  *conn = PQconnectdb("dbname=test"); (gdb) n 11
if (PQstatus(conn) != CONNECTION_OK) (gdb) n 18              PQfinish(conn);
 

Shutting down postmaster in here (or restarting on another port).
 (gdb) n  Program received signal SIGPIPE, Broken pipe. 0xffffe410 in ?? () (gdb) bt #0  0xffffe410 in ?? () #1
0xbfafd368in ?? () #2  0xb7fe8308 in ?? () from ../usr/lib/libpq.so.4 #3  0xbfafd340 in ?? () #4  0xb7f68321 in send ()

main() at finish.c:18
 

Should I handle SIGPIPE each time I call PQfinish() manually or should
PQfinish() be responsible for this task?


Regards.
