Oops.  Okay.  Here's a lesson in getting too fancy.  With the following
settings in /etc/system, Postgres does not work:

set shmsys:shminfo_shmmax=50000000
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmin=200
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmni=200
set shmsys:shminfo_shmseg=200
set semsys:seminfo_semmap=250
set semsys:seminfo_semmni=500
set semsys:seminfo_semmns=500
set semsys:seminfo_semmsl=500
set semsys:seminfo_semmnu=500
set semsys:seminfo_semume=100


Pare this down to the minimum, and Postgres *does* work:

set shmsys:shminfo_shmmax=50000000


Why, I don't know, especially since those extra shared memory directives
appear to exceed Postgres' requirements.  But for the record, keep
/etc/system simple.

Thanks to Bruce for pointing me in the right direction.
