Edmund Mergl was kind enough to point out my error and now
that I look back at the Programmer's documentation I see it.  Someone
might want to update the Pg man page to reflect this.  Thanks!

Use perldoc Pg to read it.  It's packaged as /usr/lib/perl5/man/man3/Pg.3 in
the RPM.  It is located at src/interfaces/perl5/blib/man3/Pg.3 in the tarball.
