Have you used any of DBI's tracing capabilities? Could you post a
simple test case? The following works for me with Perl 5.8.6, DBI
1.47, DBD::Pg 1.32, and PostgreSQL 7.4.7 on FreeBSD 4.11-STABLE:

#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;
use DBI;

my $dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:Pg:dbname=test", "mfuhr", "", {AutoCommit => 0});
$dbh->do("CREATE TABLE foo (x integer)");
$dbh->commit;
$dbh->disconnect;
