DNS was also my first thought, but the connection isn't logged so why do
reverse lookup and with my clients ip address in /etc/hosts is same.

I have now also tried on a Sun Ultra Sparc running Solaris 10
and an Intel EMT64 running FreeBSD 6-BETA4 with the same discouraging
result. On the FreeBSD I have tried both compiling by hand and from ports.

All servers where it isn't working properly have in common that it
is PgSQL ver. 8.0.3 compiled with gcc ver. 3.4.4 running on 64-bits
cpu's

It's working well on an old K6-II running FreeBSD 4.11, PgSQL 8.03
compiled with gcc 2.95.4
