the yum packages for 9.5 apparently changed the path of the socket from

I have several versions installed on the same dev system running on
different ports.... for 9.1 through 9.4 this was no problem, but since
I installed 9.5, I now have to specify -h /tmp -p XXXX to connect to an
earlier version, this has raised havoc with my scripts and stuff, for
instance this script invoked from crontab no longer works on the earlier
versions...
#!/bin/bash
## postgres backup script
DD=$(date +%a)
PP=/backups/pgsql/svfis-kvm3
for p in 5432 5433 5434 5435; do
pg_dumpall -p $p -g -f $PP/pg_dumpall.$p.globals-$DD.sql
for db in $(psql -p $p -tc "select datname from pg_database where
not datistemplate"); do
pg_dump -Fc -p $p --schema-only -f $PP/pgdump.$p.$db.$DD.dump -d
$db

Curiosity got the better of me, so now I have tried it:
unix_socket_directories = '/tmp, /var/run/postgresql'
aklaver@panda:~> /usr/local/pgsql95/bin/psql -d postgres -p 5462 -h /tmp
-U postgres
psql (9.5.0)
Type "help" for help.
