Hmm, OK on further investigation it looks like the applink code must be
in the exe, not the dll. This is *really* annoying because it means that
anyone writing a libpq based application now also needs the OpenSSL
headers of the exact version used in libpq :-(. For me thats not an
issue of course, but I doubt many others build Postgres and their app
themselves.

Anyway, I've committed a fix for pgAdmin which seems to work using the
certificates you sent me. I'll send you a .exe to test if you like?

of course

One other annoying side effect is that a debug build of pgAdmin *must*
now use a debug build of libpq, otherwise it'll outright crash when
connecting to an SSL server with a client certificate :-(
