+may be needed if the server you are connecting to has a different
+default socket directory from the one used to compile DBD::Pg.
+Use the complete path to the socket directory as the name of the
+host, like this:
+
+ $dbh = DBI->connect('dbi:Pg:dbname=foo;host=/var/tmp/socket',
+ $username, $password,
+ {AutoCommit => 0, RaiseError => 1});
