The wrong associations are overwritten in the typecaster map by the
right ones, so they have been harmless to date, but only because of the
order of creation of the adapters.
It fails on Py3 after receiving a SIGABRT. Because we don't handle it
here it will resurface later with nonsense such as:
SystemError: <some function> returned a result with an error set
Close#551
Changed check in setup.py to only use vc9 manifest when built against
versions that use the MSVC 2008 compiler. Resolves#541.
Note that as of VS 2010, a manifest is no longer needed according to this
comment, "...we are no longer deploying the VC dlls as Win32 assemblies.
They are regular dlls that can be loaded without a manifest."

Some extra bonus refactoring to improve the function readability (don't
reuse names for variables with different refcount rules, don't pass
separate obj/self, async pass-through...)
I'll be honest: I lucked out, I didn't think about this combination. But
maybe sheer luck, maybe using common code paths, it just works. Let's
make it stays so.
From the DB-API (https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0249/):
OperationalError
Exception raised for errors that are related to the database's
operation and not necessarily under the control of the programmer,
e.g. an unexpected disconnect occurs, [...]
Additionally, psycopg2 was inconsistent, at least in the async case:
depending on how the "connection closed" error was reported from the
kernel to libpq, it would sometimes raise OperationalError and
sometimes DatabaseError. Now it always raises OperationalError.
There's a race condition that only seems to happen over Unix-domain
sockets. Sometimes, the closed socket is reported by the kernel to
libpq like this (captured with strace):
sendto(3, "Q\0\0\0\34select pg_backend_pid()\0", 29, MSG_NOSIGNAL, NULL, 0) = 29
recvfrom(3, "E\0\0\0mSFATAL\0C57P01\0Mterminating "..., 16384, 0, NULL, NULL) = 110
recvfrom(3, 0x12d0330, 16384, 0, 0, 0) = -1 ECONNRESET (Connection reset by peer)
That is, psycopg2/libpq sees no error when sending the first query
after the connection is closed, but gets an error reading the result.
In that case, everything worked fine.
But sometimes, the error manifests like this:
sendto(3, "Q\0\0\0\34select pg_backend_pid()\0", 29, MSG_NOSIGNAL, NULL, 0) = -1 EPIPE (Broken pipe)
recvfrom(3, "E\0\0\0mSFATAL\0C57P01\0Mterminating "..., 16384, 0, NULL, NULL) = 110
recvfrom(3, "", 16274, 0, NULL, NULL) = 0
recvfrom(3, "", 16274, 0, NULL, NULL) = 0
i.e. libpq received an error when sending the query. This manifests as
a slightly different exception from a slightly different place. More
importantly, in this case connection.closed is left at 0 rather than
being set to 2, and that is the bug I'm fixing here.
Note that we see almost identical behaviour for sync and async
connections, and the fixes are the same. So I added extremely similar
test cases.
Finally, there is still a bug here: for async connections, we
sometimes raise DatabaseError (incorrect) and sometimes raise
OperationalError (correct). Will fix that next.
