Adrian,

   It is 9.4.5, but I have the source tarball for 9.5.4 in the build
directory.

   No.

   I'll delete the 9.4.5 package and build the 9.5.4 package. Will run init
on port 5442 ... except that I do not find an option for init to specify a
different port. So I assume that the initdb doesn't care about ports.

   Not sure how I do this. Don't I need to kill the postgres-9.3.4 process
then start the -9.5.4 process?
