The way libpq is set up, NOTICE messages *will* appear on stderr
no matter what, unless the client app overrides the default notice
message processor (which is this hugely complicated routine that
calls fprintf(stderr, ...) ;-)).

Perhaps psql ought to plug in a no-op notice message processor
if -q is specified.
