More about this: due to the PID file not being in the right place, pg_ctl stop
never reports success:
waiting for postmaster to shut
down............................................................... failed
pg_ctl: postmaster does not shut down
This appears to be because the duplicate PID in the conf directory is not
removed on shutdown.
