pg_restore ignores environment variable PGDATABASE. Is this intentional? (perhaps because of the risk of restoring into the wrong db?) I would prefer if it would honor the PGDATABASE variable, but if it does ignore it intentionally, the following (from 9.2devel docs) is obviously incorrect: "This utility, like most other PostgreSQL utilities, also uses the environment variables supported by libpq (see Section 31.13)." I could look into fixing one (binary) or the other (docs), but what /is/ the preferred behavior? thanks, Erik Rijkers
