Oh, more, if I give an invalid value on the command line, we get the
right message out. So, it appears to be a conf file issue.
I'm no (f)lex guru, nor do I totally understand the startup stuff.
I feel the patch (modulo the killing of the elog() and fprintf() is
valuable. I think I am the first to use the string parse_hook, so
this is probably the first time we've had this issue.
Any help would be appreciated.
