Solution is:
postmaster generates a socket file in dir /tmp named
.s.PGSQL.5432 This file is the culprit. I have a daily cron job
running, which removes aged files in /tmp. The socket file isn't
changed after coming to life, so my remove job deletes it. This
is the reason why psql can't connect to postmaster.
Ok, I can change my cleanup script. But wouldn't it be better to
hide the socket file in a subdirectory as it is done by the X11 font
server and X11: They write their socket files in subdirectories
/tmp/.font-unix and /tmp/.X11-unix
Suggestion: /tmp/.postgres
