Odd. Well, that's the code we use when writing the file. Reading it is
handled by libpq, which can be tested using psql of course. Please try
connecting to a password protected DB with an entry in .pgpass using psql.
Also, please try renaming the file, and trying it in /Users/devuser and
figuring our where exactly libpq is looking for it.

Cheers, Dave.
