ok, but there is still no reasonable default. The only way
I got things working is starting the postmaster with -i
and setting the environment-variable PGHOST to 'localhost'.
It should be possible to connect to the backend on the
localhost without having to define the host in the environment
or as argument in PQconnectdb().
The problem is in PQconnectdb() in libpq.
I will supply a patch as soon as I have time to make a clean one
against current sources.
regards,
