OK, done and applied:

    test=> \db
           List of tablespaces
        Name    |  Owner   | Location
    ------------+----------+----------
     pg_default | postgres |
     pg_global  | postgres |
     temp       | postgres | /bjm/tmp
    (3 rows)

    test=> \db+
                             List of tablespaces
        Name    |  Owner   | Location |         Access privileges
    ------------+----------+----------+-----------------------------------
     pg_default | postgres |          |
     pg_global  | postgres |          |

Tablespaces, being global, don't have comments so I didn't do that part.
