Never mind,
somehow a application setup a pgpass.conf file for me
without my knowledge.

Sorry it's not a bug.  However I wonder if it might be a good idea if
psql would raise a warning after logon that a pgpass.conf file was used
for authentication or have it written to the log.
I am sure some 3rd party application I was testing created the file when
it took my server login information.  I would have found out about it
right away if it's use would have been written to the log.

Thanks everyone for you help.
