Um ... all of those except -c and -w require an argument AFAIK. Where did
you read that they don't?
The pg_ctl man page does seem to need some work, for instance -t is shown
as requiring an argument in the syntax synopsis, and the textual
description implies that it has one, but
-t
--timeout
should look more like
-t seconds
--timeout=seconds
But on the whole I'd bet that discrepancies of this sort are documentation
bugs not code bugs.
