DBD::Pg 0.96 Possible Bug

[Victor Michael Blancas]

Why is it that for DBD::Pg 0.95, the connect string is:

$dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:Pg:dbname=$dbname", $username, $password);

but in DBD::Pg 0.96, this doesn't work. I was only able to connect using
the following connect string:

$dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:Pg:dbname=$dbname;user=$username;password=$password");

Is this a new DBI spec, or just for DBD::Pg. Could someone enlighten me.
Thanks.
