Well, it seems like that could happen. This is a machine that has a
instance of 8.2 running on it. My bash history says that the command
that I ran to start the 8.3.6 instance is
pg_ctl start -D /db02/postgres/data8.3.6/data -l data836.log. /db02/
postgres/data8.3.6/data is where the data is. Does pg_ctl need of
full path, because this command probably ran the 8.2 version of that.
