Okay, so pgaccess has got a behavior change ... but the bug report was
about psql, or so I thought.

We can easily change pgaccess to do this correctly for 7.1, but then it
will fail completely on older releases (there was no datlastsysoid column
in pg_database before).  Is backward compatibility a design concern for
pgaccess, or not?
