A lot of other people use pg_ctl without any problem. If you want us to
take this report seriously, you'll need to provide some details that'd
show why it's not working for you. For instance, exactly how are you
invoking pg_ctl, in what environment, and on what platform?

If you're speaking of pg_dump -C, that's fixed in current sources
(7.2.1-to-be).
