I'm working on building the dependencies to run a build farm script on it,
may get better debugging results.
In the meantime, I haveanother build with:
./configure --enable-cassert --enable-debug
--with-includes=/opt/freeware/include --with-libraries=/opt/freeware/lib
--enable-thread-safety && gmake
gmake
sudo gmake install
Based on flags I've seen on the build farm configs. It fails in an identical
manner. From what I've seen, initdb execs quite a few things, but fails at
the exec () postgresql:
Here's /usr/local/pgsql/bin/initdb -d -D /usr/local/pgsql/data
[[ .. same as before, but with more debug..]]
