It's the '-l' option (list all databases) that does not honor the database

This does not work, if the postgres database is dropped in 8.1:
psql -l template1
It does seem a bit inconsistent that psql wouldn't connect to the
specified database in order to do -l, if one is specified.
Anyone want to look and see if it's easy to change?
The relevant code in startup.c reads:
pset.db = PQsetdbLogin(options.host, options.port, NULL, NULL,
options.action == ACT_LIST_DB ? "postgres" : options.dbname,
username, password);
I think we could probably just change the expression to something like:
options.action == ACT_LIST_DB && options.dbname == NULL ?
"postgres" : options.dbname
