Is that the exact command you ran? As shown it should fail with a
syntax error because the options are in the wrong place:
% createdb test -h localhost -U postgres
createdb: too many command-line arguments (first is "localhost")
Try "createdb --help" for more information.

Likewise:
% createlang plpgsql test -h localhost -U postgres
createlang: too many command-line arguments (first is "-h")
Try "createlang --help" for more information.
Use the --help option or consult the createlang documentation to see
the correct order of options and arguments. It works fine here with
.pgpass if the syntax is correct; have you run "createlang --version"
to verify that you're running the 8.0.4 version?
