does the 9.4 yum install no longer support using the sysconfig settings fragments ?  I see what looks like the correct shell code for it in /etc/rc.d/init.d/postgresql-9.4 ...

    # Override defaults from /etc/sysconfig/pgsql if file is present
    [ -f /etc/sysconfig/pgsql/${NAME} ] && . /etc/sysconfig/pgsql/${NAME}


....arrrrgh, comment in /etc/rc.d/init.d/postgresql-9.4 would suggest so...


    # Version 9.4.0 Devrim Gunduz <devrim@xxxxxxxxxx>
    # Remove PGPORT variable

so... how do you run multiple versions??

and apparently the answer is, you set pgport in postgresql.conf rather than via shell.  ugh.   means you can't tell the port from ps...
