That patch looks good to me.
Moreover, I wonder whether we shouldn't remove the branch where
conn->connhost is NULL. When would that be the case? The current
behavior is to sometimes return the actual host connected to, and
sometimes the host list. That doesn't make sense.
I think we should also revert 64f86fb11e20b55fb742af72d55806f8bdd9cd2d,
in which psql's \conninfo digs out the raw hostaddr value to display,
which could contain a list of things. I think \conninfo should just
display the value returned by PQhost(), and if we change PQhost() to
take hostaddr into account, then this should address the original complaint.
