I think the philosophy behind pg_hba.conf is that you distinguish client
*systems*. So one client might be Kerberos-capable, or one client might
be Windows and use SSPI. For that, it doesn't matter which of multiple
ports or local sockets it uses. So I don't think there are any changes
needed in this area.
