Hm ... pg_regress unsets PGDATABASE, along with the other related environment variables, when it has a temp installation but not when it doesn't. So what I don't understand is why your environment doesn't also break every other regression test besides ecpg. Perhaps they're all connecting to "postgres", but it's hard to believe there wouldn't be conflicts if so. regards, tom lane
