I get the same thing from ps, but for some reason the -D flag is
completely ignored.  Try copying the data directory somewhere
else, change the -D flag accordingly, then do a "createdb foo".
Where does the new "foo" database show up?  On 2.2.2 with the
above startup script it still shows up in /usr/local/pgsql/data,
not the specified directory.

BUT, it works fine if I echo the command to su.  Maybe some su
quirk?
