The following bug has been logged online:

Bug reference: 4010
Logged by: Jasen Betts
Email address: jasne@treshna.com
PostgreSQL version: 8.3.0 (win32)
Operating system: XP pro
Description: psql does not honour -c after database name
Details:

I notice psql is now enforcing the argument ordering that is documented in
the --help blurb

Is that considered a feature

I used to do

psql -U username database -c "some big long command"

and that no longer works

I guess this usage is going against the documented command-line format.

Whether or not this works is determined by the operating system, not by
PostgreSQL.
