This problem is not limited to NFS. It can happen with any FS just by
reversing (for whatever reason) the order of mounting the FS and
starting the PostgreSQL server.
But the SUSE RPMs have the auto-initdb feature since the PostgreSQL
7.0 days (almost six years), and AFAIR I never got a single complaint
about this sort of problem.
