New default startup disabled TCP/IP connections, using Unix Domain Sockets
exclusively. If PGHOST/PGPORT are set, then the "frontends" try to use TCP/IP
vs Unix Domain, and will therefore fail. To get the old behaviour, startup
postmaster with the -i option to turn TCP/IP connections back on again...
