Oh, well spotted. I've committed some code to fix this and hopefully
make it easier to catch similar issues in the future. Do you want an
updated .exe?

This also sounds like it might have been an issue that Harald saw - he
was running some experimental queries with occasional errors iirc.

exactly. And I could not reproduce that behaviour today, because after
doing those queries with errors I learned and formulated them more
correct from the start

Yes, I woul like to get an updated exe; please package them in
pgadmin.dave or .foo or .whatever to trick gmail
