runbib complaining "could not read from refdbd": msg#00008

Subject: runbib complaining "could not read from refdbd"
Hello,

I had a fully functional RefDB setup until this morning.  :-)  I needed
to move refdbd from one machine to another.  I took the opportunity to
change to using PostgreSQL from SQLite.  It seemed to go smoothly, in
that I used refdba to create the new DB, and refdbc to restore the
RISX dump from the old DB.  So I have two tools working.  The setup
is: clients on Cygwin/WinXP and server on FreeBSD 5.2.1.  I've used
refdbc from both machines.

Previously working Makefiles now stall at the runbib step.  I updated
refdbibrc to reflect the new setup.  refdbib.log just shows:

4:pid=3972:Wed Jun 16 02:58:51 2004:could not read from refdbd
6:pid=3972:Wed Jun 16 02:58:51 2004:refdbib finished with errors

This is with loglevel at debug.  refdbd.log shows some activity:

7:pid=13976:Wed Jun 16 02:57:42 2004:SELECT 
t_author.author_name,t_author.author_lastname,t_author.author_firstname,t_author.author_middlename,t_author.author_suffix
 FROM t_author, t_xauthor WHERE t_author.author_id=t_xauthor.author_id AND 
t_xauthor.xauthor_type=1 AND t_xauthor.refdb_id=5 ORDER BY 
t_xauthor.xauthor_position

[Many more lines showing SQL queries cut.]

It seems odd for just one tool to fail the upgrade.  Can anyone
suggest how I might debug this further?
