I've been trying to think of an explanation for this, but it's hard to
come up with one, if your pg_hba.conf is indeed factory-stock. Did you
build PG from source, or is it from somebody's RPM distribution? (Some
distributions supply modified pg_hba files.) For that matter, what
platform is this on anyway?
