  1. Re: [HACKERS] DefaultHost

       in the current snapshot there is no default for PGHOST 
       in src/interfaces/libpq/fe-connect.c. 
       In 6.2 this was 'localhost', which is a reasonable default.
    
       If there is no real reason for not having a default for
       the host-option, please provide 'localhost' as default.
    
    No host means connect with unix domain socket.
    If host (PGHOST) is set connection is made with tcp socket.
    
    This is related to the problem I mentioned before with
    DBD::Pg and libpq.
    
    	regards,
