I'm not really that lazy, I was just stuck in the oracle world view (grant priv to user). Your search strings don't fit in that logic. It looks like sys privs are never provided by grant, rather create or alter. Hmm, sans CONNECT, which seems rather system priv to me. MIght make for a handy additional comment to http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.2/static/sql-grant.html 'For system privileges see "ALTER ROLE."'
