The "8?@@" is not the hostname but the error message. Not that that's
more helpful ...
JFTR: Testing your example on my machine (only changing the hostname, no PG
running, unstable) I get:
DBI connect('dbname=dbname;host='belanna';port=5432;','dbuser',...) failed: could not connect to server: Connection refused
Is the server running on host "belanna" and accepting
TCP/IP connections on port 5432?
at ./test line 6
