Hi,
Another observation , if i change the ownership of a file which is under 
global/ directory
i.e

[root@tushar-ldap-docker global]# chown enterprisedb 2396

and run the pg_validatebackup command, i am getting this message -

[centos@tushar-ldap-docker bin]$ ./pg_validatebackup gggg
pg_validatebackup: * manifest_checksum = 
e8cb007bcc9c0deab6eff51cd8d9d9af6af35b86e02f3055e60e70e56737e877

I am getting the error message but along with "*** Error in 
`./pg_validatebackup': double free or corruption (!prev): 
0x0000000001850ba0 ***"  messages

Is this expected ?
