Because there isn't one --- at that point in the process, only database
template1 will exist.
The postgres invocation at that step of initdb looks just about the
same as the previous ones:
"$PGPATH"/postgres $PGSQL_OPT template1 >/dev/null <<EOF
and it should certainly go to template1 rather than defaulting to $USER.
I suspect that you messed this command up somehow while hand-modifying
the script.
