Well, that looks like a clean startup. I'm not sure if anyone else on the list 
has any ideas. Maybe getting a stack trace of psql trying to connect would shed 
some light...

Does a backend get spawned when you try running psql? (Look at ps aux|grep 
postgres before and after running psql).

If you telnet to localhost 5432 is it listening or does it hang? If it hangs I would guess a firewall but I would think you would pick up on the unix socket.

What's the logfile say about it?
