   test=> \set
   AUTOCOMMIT = 'OFF'

*facepalm*.

Turns out someone put a .psqlrc with autocommit off in /etc/skel when the box 
was originally set up as a replacement for our previous app server. Account 
users were created afterwards, and the change propagated to our application 
account as well as all of our individual accounts.

Why, though, would `SHOW AUTOCOMMIT` lie? And `SET AUTOCOMMIT TO off` says that 
capability is disabled. So how does the config file manage to do it?

Thanks for the insight!
