Just as a point, which i proably moot if you've done most of the work
already :) But at some point it might be worthwhile to see if our life
would be mad easier by using flex (with or without bison) to parse
pg_hba.conf as wel, since we do it for postgresql.conf and other
things. If it makes maintenance easier, it's probably worth it.
