I found no error/warning with compling and installation. I have executed pg_resetxlog with some input pattern.
$ initdb -D data -E UTF8 --no-locale $ pg_controldata data | grep "Database system identifier" Database system identifier: 6028907917695471865
-- $ pg_resetxlog -s -n data | grep "Database system identifier" Database system identifier: 6028907917695471865
The -s option does not works fine with -n option.
-- $ pg_resetxlog -s6028907917695471865111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 data Transaction log reset $ pg_controldata data | grep "Database system identifier" Database system identifier: 18446744073709551615
pg_resetxlog is finished successfully, but system identifier was not changed. Also I think that checking data about number of digits is needed.
Yep, system_identifier is a uint64, and the input you are giving here is incompatible with that.
