It strikes me that the most obvious source for a platform dependency
there would be getopt(), in particular the arrangements to cause getopt
to behave sanely when we invoke it on a different argc array the second
time around. If that were failing for some reason, you could imagine
getopt seeing 'postgres' as the next switch to parse, which could lead
to the reported failure.
Hence:
1. Is that build using src/port/getopt.c, or a library-supplied getopt?
What about getopt_long.c?
2. Is HAVE_INT_OPTRESET getting defined? Should it be?
