If they're using libpq which I believe the non pure perl interface does then it
should be transparent if the client's libpq has been built with ssl
enabled. The tcl interface uses libpq no doubt, I don't know about python but I
don't see why it wouldn't and of course psql uses libpq so that's covered as
well.

ssh tunneling works I believe as well...indeed, trawling my memory again, may
be that's what I had working and I never did rebuild the workstation's package
with ssl. Oh well, there's that memory thing again.
