If I had a more Machiavellian bent I would make sure that happened ;-)

How about this note under log_connections?:

"Some clients (notably psql) sometimes try to connect without a password 
before trying with a password. This behaviour will generate two log 
lines if log_connections is turned on, even though to the user it 
appears that only one connection has occurred."
