Any issues with using .pgpass files and DBD::Pg

I have a set of tests for one application  When the test case calls
psql, the .pgpass file is used.

When the test case is run through Perl and DBI, we get:

DBI connect('dbname=[dbname]','',...) failed: fe_sendauth: no password supplied

Is this normal?  I would have thought the call to libpq would have
been where the .pgpass handling would occur.  Am I missing something?

Granted this is an older version of DBD::Pg (pre-2.0) but I would have
thought this was lower-level than that.

Best Wishes,
