redhat 7.3 courier version 0.39.0 postgreSQL version 7.2.1

In my /etc/courier/authpgsqlrc file, I have commented out PGSQL_HOST, and set PGSQL_PORT to /tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432, which is the socket created by my postgreSQL server. However, PGSQL authentication was not working. When I did an strace on the authdaemon.pgsql program, I found out that it was attempting to use /tmp/.s.PGSQL.0, instead of what was defined in the config file. I made a symlink from /tmp/.s.PGSQL.0 to /tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432, and authentication via PGSQL now works. Is this a bug that needs fixing?

I'm not sure what the deal is there. The PGSQL_HOST setting goes directly to postgres, unaltered...
