Hello PostgreSQL people,
Thanks for making PostgreSQL, it's great. Here's a bug report.
Thanks

System Configuration
---------------------
Architecture (example: Intel Pentium) : ia64, 4 way SMP
Operating System (example: Linux 2.0.26 ELF) : Linux 2.4.3 SMP kernel
PostgreSQL version (example: PostgreSQL-7.2.1): PostgreSQL-7.2.1
Compiler used (example: gcc 2.95.2) : 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.1
2.96-85)
Please enter a FULL description of your problem:
-------------------------------------------------
Running "initdb -D /data/path" fails. With debug enabled (-d switch) I get a
trace which ends:
DEBUG: inserting column 10 value 'byteain'
DEBUG: Typ == NULL, typeindex = 7
DEBUG: -> byteain
DEBUG: inserted
DEBUG: inserting column 11 value 'byteaout'
DEBUG: Typ == NULL, typeindex = 7
ERROR: Relation "pg_class" does not exist
initdb failed.
Removing /local/scratch/ig206/postgresql_data.
Running the same command again causes it to fail somewhere different, e.g.:
DEBUG: inserting column 9 value '0'
DEBUG: Typ == NULL, typeindex = 9
DEBUG: -> 0
DEBUG: inserted
DEBUG: inserting column 10 value 'cidin'
DEBUG: Typ == NULL, typeindex = 7
DEBUG: -> cidin
DEBUG: inserted
DEBUG: inserting column 11 value 'cidout'
DEBUG: Typ == NULL, typeindex = 7
ERROR: Relation "pg_class" does not exist
initdb failed.
Removing /local/scratch/ig206/postgresql_data.
It's not always pg_class which doesn't exist, e.g.:
DEBUG: inserting column 10 value 'boolin'
DEBUG: Typ == NULL, typeindex = 7
DEBUG: -> boolin
DEBUG: inserted
DEBUG: inserting column 11 value 'boolout'
DEBUG: Typ == NULL, typeindex = 7
ERROR: Relation "pg_proc" does not exist
Please describe a way to repeat the problem. Please try to provide a
concise reproducible example, if at all possible:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Build postgresql 7.2.1 on an SMP ia64 machine and run initdb?
If you know how this problem might be fixed, list the solution below:

Sorry, I have no idea at all.
