psql connects through sockets, Drupal (was used to?) connect through
tcp.
Give a look to pg_hba.conf for connection permission.
PHP had (has?) a problem and if you really want to have a socket
connection you had to skip "host=localhost" in the connection string.
Drupal is using a completely new DB abstraction layer and this may
not be needed anymore.
