By default, <filename>libpq</filename> prints "notice" messages from the backend on stderr,
as well as a few error messages that it generates by itself.
This behavior can be overridden by supplying a callback function that
does something else with the messages. The callback function is passed
the text of the error message (which includes a trailing newline), plus
a void pointer that is the same one passed to <function>PQsetNoticeProcessor</function>.
(This pointer can be used to access application-specific state if needed.)
The default notice processor is simply

static void
defaultNoticeProcessor(void * arg, const char * message)
