Won't work if any of the options contain whitespace, which is quite
probable. For example, my postmaster.opts currently contains
/home/postgres/testversion/bin/postmaster '-i' '-o' '-F -S 5120'
Removing the quotes will certainly break this. We need to find a
smarter way for the script to parse the file contents.
