it was a combination of two things.
the up grade to 8.4.12 does not use localhost. only host IP address for TCP
netstat -nlp | grep 5432
tcp 0 0 xx.xx.xxx.32:5432 0.0.0.0:*
LISTEN 2699/postmaster
unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 9964 2699/postmaster
/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432
.
next centos 5.8 no longer allows 127.0.1 without it being put in
firewall for both source and destination as well as port.

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.
Thanks,

psql: could not connect to server: Connection refused
Is the server running on host "localhost" and accepting
TCP/IP connections on port 5432?
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.
