It almost certainly means that in that case unix domain sockets are used
whereas tcp sockets are used when you specifiy a server.
psql(1) also uses unix sockets unless you specify a host with the PGHOST
environmental or with the -h or --host switches, so that is expected if
it is the case that sql.el uses psql(1) to do the heavy lifting.
