   in the current snapshot there is no default for PGHOST
   in src/interfaces/libpq/fe-connect.c.
   In 6.2 this was 'localhost', which is a reasonable default.

   If there is no real reason for not having a default for
   the host-option, please provide 'localhost' as default.

No host means connect with unix domain socket.
If host (PGHOST) is set connection is made with tcp socket.

This is related to the problem I mentioned before with
DBD::Pg and libpq.

    regards,
