I got the above output when I created a new data directory and initdb'd it.
/tmp shows:
4 -rw------- 1 thom thom 55 2012-03-06 16:22
.s.PGSQL.5488.lock
0 srwxrwxrwx 1 thom thom 0 2012-03-06 16:22 .s.PGSQL.5488
Once it's up and running. These disappear after though. When using
the old data directory again, there's no evidence of anything like
this in /tmp.
