Uh, what about security labels?

OK, here is the new text:

        Have libpq's <link
        linkend="libpq-pqhost"><function>PQhost()</function></link>
        always return the actual connected host (Hari Babu)

        Previously <function>PQhost()</function> often returned the
        supplied host parameters, which could contain several hosts.
->      It will now also return the host's IP address if the host name was
->      not supplied.  The same is true of <function>PQport()</function>,
        which now returns the actual port number, not the multiple supplied
        port numbers.
