OK!  That's progress.  Let's see what's still broken.

I will clean up the message.  It's not really a failure; that return
code is expected on a non-blocking socket.

Unfortunately it seems you trimmed off the interesting part.  :-(  Post
the whole log if you would.  It may tell us something.  

The other thing you might do is run tsql under gdb and show us the
backtrace.  

One more thing.  I changed tsql recently and that could be the problem.
Please try your query with bsqldb, too.  (You can use ldd(1) to make
sure it's using the right library.) 

Thanks.  I'm hoping your system is some kind of canary that will help us
find errors.
