Summary: Select port for PostgreSQL connection

Initial Comment:
It would be good if you could choose the port the 
PostgreSQL database listens to.

This feature is essential if you like to use a sql-
proxy which listens on a non-standard port (at least 
different from the standard postgresql port 5432)

I agree with this request.

The second thing you suggest is not possible. If you take a look at the
pg_connect function, you can see that you need to specify every attribute
separately:

$dbconn2 = pg_connect("host=localhost port=5432 dbname=mary");

I think it would be best to introduce an extra dbPort attribute, just like
you have dbHost now, and add that to the different db backends Serendipity
supports.

I'm not that familiar with pgsql, but can't you specify that
in your php.ini or maybe by specifing the host like
"localhost:5344"?
