My first use of 9.3beta1 in development failed because of changes
introduced by this patch, specifically because of the newly introduced error
   psql: -1 is incompatible with -c and -l

I'm not convinced this is correct.  -c and -l are single-transaction
actions almost by definition.

This particular aspect of the change wasn't really brought up in the
original thread.  What was your thinking?
