Yeah, I'm pretty sure that the old rule was to just ignore whatever
appeared in the database-name position. While we could tighten that
up to insist that it match the current DB's name, I'm not sure that
I see the point. There's no near-term prospect of doing anything
useful with some other DB's name there, so being more restrictive
seems like it'll probably break peoples' scripts to little purpose.
