I think you are probably right. The backend might try to lowercase the
name when it gets it, but it seems like libpq shouldn't be doing so
(any more than it's responsible for downcasing identifiers used in
SQL commands).
If the backend *does* lowercase the DB name used in a connect command,
is there any way to use a mixed-case DB name? I'm not sure there is...
