It sounds to me like bobbyw might have two separate installations of
postgres (or at least two copies of psql), one compiled with /tmp as the
default socket location and one compiled with /var/run/postgresql as the
default.  /tmp is the out-of-the-box default but I think Debian likes to
build it with /var/run/postgresql as the default.
