pg_basebackup/ with fe_recvint64() has its own way to do things, as
does the large object things in libpq. I would think that at least on
HEAD things could be gathered with a small set of routines. It is
annoying to have a third copy of the same thing. OK that's not
invasive but src/common/ would be a nice place to put things.
- if (PQgetlength(res, 0, 1) != sizeof(int32))
+ if (PQgetlength(res, 0, 1) != sizeof(long long int))
This had better be int64.
