You should file this as a bug against imp, look at
http://www.debian.org/Bugs/ for information about how to file bugs.

| should be
| 
| 	return (($db = pg_pconnect($dbconnectstring))) ; 
|                           ^
| instead of
| 
| 	return (($db = pg_connect($dbconnectstring))) ;
| 
| would be nice if someone could fix it.

I presume that you are aware of the difference between pg_connect and
pg_pconnect?  The only difference is that pg_pconnect is a persistent
version of pg_connect.  Their return values are the same -- a database
connection handle or FALSE if no connection could be made.  Therefore,
I don't think this is a bug at all.
