This is more-or-less what I was looking for.  Is there someplace the
list of options (i.e., dbname, user, password, etc.) is documented?

I'm actually looking to do this from PHP (in apache).  So the function
I have is pg_connect, which is declared as

    int pg_connect(string host, string port, string options,
                   string tty, string dbname);

So, I'm going to try stuffing the user=username into the options to
see if that does what I hope....
