... btw, the libpq documentation claims that

        If hostaddr is specified without host, the value for hostaddr
        gives the remote address. When Kerberos is used, a reverse name
        query occurs to obtain the host name for Kerberos.

but so far as I can see this is flat wrong.  pg_krb5_sendauth throws
an error if you didn't provide a host name, and so do the other places
in fe-auth.c that need the host name.  What we're about to do to SSL
verification will match that.  So I think the docs need a fix here.

                        regards, tom lane
