Hmm, do you have an environment definition for PGPORT?
I notice that pg_regress.sh contains
export PGPORT
but it doesn't necessarily set any value for PGPORT. It seems possible
that some shells may take this as license to invent an empty-string
value for PGPORT, which would cause libpq to think that port 0 is being
specified.
My feeling is that libpq ought to ignore an empty-string PGPORT
environment value, rather than treat it as selecting port 0.
Comments anyone?
