I didn't notice anything wrong with the script you posted.  What
happens if you run the "su" command that starts the postmaster
directly from the command line?  That is, the "su" on line 151
(you'll have to set the PGDATA environment variable or replace it
with the path to your data directory):

su -l postgres -s /bin/sh -c "/usr/bin/pg_ctl -D $PGDATA -p /usr/bin/postmaster start

What's the output of the following command?

ls -l /bin/sh /usr/bin/pg_ctl /usr/bin/postmaster /usr/bin/postgres
