Win32 Mapserver Problem / Fix

PostGIS/PostgreSQL users who are implementing Mapserver solutions under Win32 may have come across problems due to a limitation in the Win32 version of libpq. The problem occurs when a PostGIS geometry exceeds 8K in size and libpq improperly trucates it. This in turn makes Mapserver fail.

The fix is to use a newer version of libpq, which does not truncate large records. A precompiled version is available for download.
