Well, don't I look stupid here. Once upon a time I recall to have fixed
exactly this issue, apparently it snuck back in.

If you run psql in non-interactive mode the psqlrc file shouldn't be read
at all. Unless people want that flag, but I don't like that better.

Perhaps this is a good time to ask when and how any fix to this should be
applied.
