It looks your PostgreSql is not listening on TCP sockets. Instead it is listening on Linux socket and that is the reason when you give localhost switch to psql client, it tries to use the loopback interface.

Simple solution is to make change in your postgresql.conf file to listen on TCP socket.

        Is the server running on host "localhost" and accepting

yet I can without the -h localhost, connect

this is a PostgreSQL problem that I am dealing with in their mailing list.

just thought I would give a heads up.

PostgreSQL version 8.4.12 does not support 127.0.0.1 or localhost.
they use 127.0.0.1/32 in allowed host.
my entityengine.xml setting no longer work.
I am still working on a solution.
