Thanks a bunch!

After a lot of fiddling with being able to enter single user mode on a
windows machine (I had to figure out how to run the command line as
the correct user, then for some reason -D didn't work, but SET
PGDATA=xxx worked), I finally managed to fix my problem.

You saved my user's day (of course *I* would never do something that
stupid)!
