I've tried initdb directly:

You could get more information by using the --noclean switch to prevent
removal of the datadir after failure, and then having a look at the
debris. Is there a pg_xlog subdirectory inside /zdb/pgsql/data, and if
so what permissions has it got? Perhaps it is not a directory, but a
symlink to somewhere else?
Always learning, did not know --noclean existed. That is handy. Thanks.
