This problem clearly an improper implementation on our part. We have
found a work around by wrapping the launch of psql so we can set PSQLRC.
At some point, perhaps with v10 we could change this. This problem has
been noted on other ends of the innertubes as well (we submitted this as
a potential bug to Ubuntu and they too found that we don't handle this
correctly).

Sincerely,
