When I run "pg_ctl restart" of the vanilla pgsql-8.3.4 without any options,
it does not work correctly.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] postgresql-8.3.4]$ ./root/bin/pg_ctl restart

pg_ctl: could not start server: exit code was 512
[EMAIL PROTECTED] postgresql-8.3.4]$
--------------------------
On pgsql-8.3.3, an empty string ("") is set to post_opts at read_post_opts()
when no command line options are given, but this code has gone at v8.3.4 and
NULL is remained.
This variable is used to make an argument of system() at start_postmaster(),
then /bin/sh claims it due to invalid command line.
Thanks,
