The information we've been given suggests that the same version of
psql behaves the same on different machines, and that different
versions of psql behave differently on the same machine.  If that's
the case, then such behavior isn't easily explained by differing
nsswitch.conf configurations.  Even if mucking around with nsswitch.conf
did appear to fix things, we'd still have the mystery of why the two
versions of psql behave differently.
