Except this isn't backwards compatible, in the sense that leaving out
sameuser on version 8.3 will give a different behaviour. This means that
the script we are using to generate the pg_hba.conf file, needs to know
about the version of postgres it's generating the pg_hba.conf file for.
So, the problem isn't in the fact that the syntax has been changed, but
in the fact that you can't use sameuser as the mapname.
