Hi,
I have encountered a strange pg_ctl's behavior in 8.3.
pg_ctl -w -o "-p 5432" start <-- works
pg_ctl -w -o "-i" start <-- works
pg_ctl -w -o "-p 5432 -i" start <-- doesn't work
In the last case, even postmaster starts successfully, pg_ctl keeps
trying to make sure that postmaster actually started and continues to
print "...".
I now that "-i" is obsoleted, but I think it does not explain well why
pg_ctl behaves like this.
