Sorry, I take that back. The platform is Fedora Core 4, so SELinux may
be a concern, though during the installation I selected all the minimal
options for SELinux because I wasn't prepared to deal with it.
Apologies for the previous incorrect answer, I was typing it on a Redhat
9 machine :-)

On what platform?
One theory that fits the available facts is that you're running on a
machine with SELinux enabled; the usual selinux policy forbids the
postmaster from accessing files outside /var/lib/pgsql.
