Hum, you literally added a symbol ACL_*_CHR? I was actually thinking in
ACL_CONNECT_CHR or something like that ...
While at it, why D? Isn't 'c' more natural? (And conveniently unused.)

To force an initdb, because you are causing a system catalog change.
Now that I think about it, maybe it's not needed, because the default
state of the system should be the same as if no privilege has changed.
OTOH you need to speficy the interpretation of the initial state of the
ACL for a database. I think it should mean that PUBLIC has the CONNECT
privilege.
