"symbol (unknown)". Can you turn on debugging symbols? Knowing the
symbol may point to a library that was not compiled properly.

Are you sure that all pg_ctl referenced libraries and all libpq.so
referenced libraries were built as 64-bit using PIC? Are you linking
with any static library that may contain 32-bit objects? That error is
most commonly PIC or arch-mismatch.
