Users uncomfortable with writing down the password on a PGPASSWORD
environment var or pgpass.conf, ___*on the machine running PSQL
client*___, seem to have no solution then... I know - something to ask
in pgsql-general.

This change is actually new in 8.1.4. It was not in 8.1.3, and the
8.1.4 release notes mention it:

* Fix problem with password prompting on some Win32 systems (Robert
Kinberg)

Not sure what more we could do. Since you are the first person to
notice a problem, we probably had it at the right level of prominence.
