Olive,
You need to locate the libreadline.so.4 shared library on your system. I'm
guessing it's not in any of the standard locations and then add that path to
your LD_LIBRARY_PATH. You might also need to install libreadline if you do
not have it available on your system.
I'm curious as to why initdb is kicking off when you su to the postgres user
though. Is this how the solaris pkg is set up?

after typying
# su postgres
I get the message
$ld.so.l: /usr/local/pgsql/bin/initdb: fatal: libreadline.so.4: open failed: No such file or directory
