The 8.4.2 documentation says:
"The default user name is your Unix user name, as is the default
database name."
Not so much. My one-click installer creates a user 'postgres' who
becomes the default user name...as well as the owner of the data file.
Is postgres arguing with itself here? Or at least in its one-click
incarnation on the Mac.
In Nikhil's world, I would say that the clients are pretty carefully
tightened down in terms of privileges. And apparently Vista has
enabled more tightening down.

This means that in fact I'm using non-admin rights unless/until I
accept a UAC prompt.
