You also need to update your syslog.conf and restart syslogd

Add a line like:
local0.*         /var/log/pgsql

Saw this post and tried to setup the log info to be sent to a different
file '/var/log/pgsql'.  There was no trouble with this.

I then thought I would use a more logical name than 'LOCAL0' for the
facility name.  However no matter what name I tried
'/etc/init.d/postgresql' wouldn't restart the 'postmaster' program.

The local0/1/etc facilities are for "custom" applications logging to syslog. You can see a list of valid facilities with "man syslog.conf"
