Greg,
Switching to 1.42 didn't help, but 1.43 did the trick. I didn't realize
that there were newer versions of DBD::Pg. The CPAN install tool kept
telling me that DBD::Pg was up to date.
Thanks for the help!

Everything looks fine. There were some weird corner cases in 1.41 that were
fixed: it`s possible this is one of them, although it does not lok like it.
Can you test out 1.43, the latest version?
