Mystery solved. As originally expected, something *stupid*. It turns
out that postgres was reading the pg_hba.conf in /opt/pgsql/data/; I
was editing (and expecting postgres to read) the file in /etc/postgresql.
This confusion is probably due to running a formerly pure Debian system,
but switching some time ago to compiling directly from the Postgresql
sources to avoid having to use the unstable branch of Debian.
Thanks for your help.
