baiji and dawn_bat are both green now, so apparently Stefan was correct
to guess that the array indexing bug in psql/print.c was the problem.
I don't understand, however, how that manifested as a hang and not
a core dump.  Does Windows not treat bogus pointer dereference the
same as everyone else does?
