Behold!  http://code.google.com/p/dblinq2007/issues/detail?id=177

The above reports two issues: (1) that in some circumstances Npgsql is
upper-casing the connection string keys (resulting in "DBLINQPROVIDER",
which isn't matched by our regex), and (2) newer versions of Npgsql
reject DbLinqProvider altogether.

Not having a PostgreSQL server to try to reproduce with, the above is
all I have to go one, but it's apparently hit at least one person.
