I assume it is because in pg_hba.conf "hostssl" is specified for this
client ip/user/database.  Plus I check ps output on the server during
the connection and postgres server reports that connection is from the
ip address specified in pg_hba.conf

Here is what I tried
---------------
PGSSLMODE=require bin/psql -h 127.0.0.1 -U xmpp xmpp
psql: server does not support SSL, but SSL was required
--------------

Just so I don't get confused between multiple lines in pg_hba.conf I
also deleted all other lines in it and retested.  Assuming postgres
server is correctly applying the restrictions in pg_hba.conf, and
assuming the out put of "ps" is reliable then I am doing an ssl
connection but somehow psql does not think so and does not work unless
I drop PGSSLMODE=require
