... this appears to me as rather a sudo issue. Because certainly
psql cannot execute /as user postgres/ in a directory where user
postgres is not allowed to enter.
FWIW, I don't think this is quite true, and it's more of a warning than a failure. For example, from my own directory I can sudo to postgres and run a psql shell with no problem. It will complain about not being able to change directory, but it will then proceed to load and run psql just fine...
[ktanzer@hosting ~]$ sudo -u postgres psql
could not change directory to "/home/ktanzer": Permission denied
psql...
could not change directory to "/home/ktanzer": Permission denied
psql...
