I had found the problem just before I read your mail and you are
perfectly right with your guess: These are the corresponding entries
from the pg_database system catalog (without the datacl column):
datname | datconfig
---------+----------------
testdb | {role=itstaff}
So it seems that one of the users (one with the appropriate permissions
for this database) has issued this "alter database" command (probably
without really understanding what he did *g*).
After "alter database testdb reset role" everything is ok now.
Thanks for your help!

Christian
