The cause turned out to be the locale.
```
[root@e175411847c9 /]# cat /var/lib/pgsql/initdb_postgresql.log
The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user "postgres".
This user must also own the server process.
initdb: invalid locale settings; check LANG and LC_* environment variables
```
`--no-locale` on initdb should be the fix. The cmdline is not configurable
in Ambari. Setting environment variable in puppet manifest might be an option.
```
